Mr. Chair, I thank the hon. member for her question and the offering of her wisdom. What we have seen in the wars over the last 20 years are mistakes and errors that might have been corrected had we had today's wisdom, but we did not.
Today, what we have is the story of the Iranian people themselves. They are among the most pro-western civilizational strengths the region has to offer, despite the occupation of the regime for 47 years over its own people. The Iranian people go back millennia to Cyrus the Great and the cylinder, which is now before the United Nations, describing one of the first instances of human freedom, human dignity and religious freedom. It is that aspiration that is now piercing through the veil of this 47-year-old tyranny, and the people of Iran are at a point where they have had enough of their government. They have paid the price with rivers of blood across the streets of Tehran and across the country.
