Canada Closes Iranian Embassy

In another sign that bloodshed may soon be coming for Iran...Canada closed it's embassy in Tehran and kicked out it the Iranian diplomats in Canada.

Canada is closing its embassy in Iran and expelling the remaining Iranian diplomats in Canada, Foreign Minister John Baird has said in a statement.

The Canadian government cited Iran's support for Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and failure to comply with UN inspectors as the reason for the move.

Iranian diplomats have been given five days to leave Canada.

An Iranian spokesman called the decision "hasty and extreme", the semi-official Fars news agency reported.

Ramin Mehmanparast, from the country's foreign affairs agency, added that the Canadian government had "a long record of animosity" towards Iran.

Mr Baird's statement on Friday said that Canada viewed Iran "as the most significant threat to global peace and security in the world today".

He also said that Iran had engaged in "racist anti-Semitic rhetoric and incitement to genocide", and had shown "blatant disregard" for the protection of diplomatic personnel.

"Under the circumstances, Canada can no longer maintain a diplomatic presence in Iran," he added.

"I will bless those who bless you and curse those who curse you." says God.

I wonder if Canada may start to receive blessings from God as they align themselves closer to Israel and start seeing things the way Israel sees them?
