      Enough with two sides team based simplistic sense of geopolitics. Israel is a warmongering aggressor state who is attacking Iran, an autocratic theocracy that commits crimes on its own people on a regular basis. There is no reason two things can not be true and terrible at the same time.

        The biggest amount of suffering is because of the western imposed sanctions on Iran. Your are supporting another regime change like the previous Shah which only serves Western purposes.

          Nope. 99% of the suffering is because of the Supreme Dictator

          Your are supporting another regime change like the previous Shah which only serves Western purposes.

          Nope. I want Iran to be able to chose their own leaders. To be thinking that Iranians aren’t good enough people to deserve freedom and basic human rights sounds a bit racist to me.

          Have you any idea on the internal situation in Iran? Talk to any Iranian, you will learn of things. Even before the western sanctions the people suffered. This idea of us vs them crap and everything is solely the fault of western influence is insulting to anyone from the region.

          I don’t think the practice of shooting shotguns into crowds from rooftops was something caused by western sanctions for example.

          Shut, and I cannot stress this enough, the fuck up.

          In 2009, the government killed 1.500 people because they went out to ask were their votes went. 10 years later they killed the same amount because people protested an overnight gas price hike of 100%. Then they killed a similar amount, because they beat a Kurdish woman to death for not wearing a hijab. Last year, a wave of gas attacks on girls schools happened and the government looked the other way.

          Mossadegh would have led Iran to a better future. Both the Shah and the IRI Ran It into the ground.

      Absolutely not. Iranians are celebrating the death of some of those killed in the strike.

            Go to YouTube and search any video about Iran and watch it. Check what women are wearing. Come back then.

                  Lol, my gf is not Iranian then. Thanks for letting me know. I’ll tell to just not bother with putting on a hijab anymore when she visits her family.
