    I like the Iranian ministers, they just casually walk with their people in the middle of a war and have the balls to call these guys out in front of everyone.

        Yeah, let’s also not forget a US regime change is why Iran has the government it does. We didn’t like it when their more secular government took control of their oil.

        We murder ours for not putting out, and our information about other parts of the world is largely curated by a fascist regime. Let’s please not forget that

          There doesn’t have to be a good guy in this story. It is perfectly plausible for this entire mess to be driven solely by villains while the innocents, who have no control over any of it, be its victims.

            That is pretty much true throughout all of history. You almost never have “good guys”; it’s usually “bad guys” versus “worse guys.”

            Yeah I don’t get why people are choosing sides when the sides are a Pedo-fascist regime and a theocratic dictatorship. This war is stupid af, but I wouldn’t shed a tear if the Iranian regime collapses due to it.

            R.I.P. to the innocent Civilians caught in the crossfire.

              because iran is not the only place the pedo-fascists are destroying, have destroyed and are willing to destroy.

                You dont have to side with a theocracy that murders women just because the other is a bunch of pedophile war mongers.

                It is possible to be anti-war and dislike both sides.

                  the innocents being bombed by the empire have all my support, for i live in a country that was also ravaged by the empire.

                  no both siding a one-sided conflict here. iran has the right to defend itself, and the us is a common enemy to all of us.

                    I too give all of my support to the innocents being bombed.

                    The Iranian Regime is everything but innocent.

                  You don’t have to like Iran to recognize that the only reason this war is happening is because of the US, Iran didn’t start the war.

            I kinda default to “underdog=good guy” in these situations. The people with trillions of dollars reaching across the globe to grub for more are typically in the wrong.
