Independent Persian has received messages from protestors within Iran via Starlink satellite that describe a ‘war-like situation’. Amirhossein Miresmaeili reports
Stop trying to reduce to this personal ethic. “The Iranian people” are not a monolith. Some of them agree with this view of the world, others don’t. They will manage it themselves.
You gotta stop imagining that everything is about moral correctness. The reason it matters what Yanks think about what other people should do isn’t because it’s a moral question but a practical one - Yanks will take their personal beliefs and then put 250k tons of depleted uranium bombs behind it.
When I say I don’t support undermining Iranian national security, I am not saying that I would bomb civilians the way the US does when it says it doesn’t support something. I don’t think a foreign military should intervene to impose its view on the world.
But I for damn sure would engage in dialog and discourse about the topic and support my position with reasoning, history, and evidence.
Luckily I don’t have to because there are millions of Iranians already having that discussion with a much better grip on the situation than I have.
My role in this discourse here is to argue with Western liberals and disabuse them of their bullshit moral superiorty driven by the empire’s propaganda machine so they stop supporting the empire’s agenda.
It seems you’ve just chosen a position with very little actual care for what the Iranian people want themself. Even going as far as you’d oppose them in their will if it doesn’t align with what you think is best for them.
I don’t think there’s been much conversation tbh. You’ve just reiterated the same position again and again, even though we both understood what you said.

And it seems like you’re incapable of actually having a conversation about this topic.
