    Is that your idea of a response to what I said? Because you address exactly none of the points I actually made.

    The European sanctions and nuclear deal were working.

    Sure, for a grand total of two years when America allowed them to out of over forty (counting from the Iranian Revolution in 1979). Before and after that it was more American imperialism with European cooperation.

    The UK just sanctioned Israel.

    The UK sanctioned Israeli settlements. That’s symbolically significant, but it doesn’t cancel out their current sins (like, again, letting America use their military bases), let alone their past ones.

          We sell a lot of defence kit to our allies in the region. So what?

          Are you defending fucking Iran? The regime killed tens of thousands of people this year alone.

            So it’s not just “Trump and Bibi’s war” now. Well that’s about all there is to say, enjoy your imperialist boomerang.
