    Now now, this is not the time to be spitting that language on Iran. Remember, we’re supposed to be sympathetic to them because America chose to war with them. /s

    This timeline is garbage in terms of world events.

        Has anyone recommended therapy for Iran’s leaders? Maybe that would stop them from violently oppressing their people, since War obviously isn’t working.

        Exactly. The Trump administration and Israel allegedly took out the majority of the Iranian government’s leadership (and killed a lot of innocent people in order to do so), yet somehow the result is just that more innocent people are dying.

        I’m just going to come right out and say it. What’s the deal with this war?

        Sorry to ask such a provocative question. Definitely don’t want to wind up on some watch list for criticizing the regime administration.

        Also, we are finally just calling it a war right? I know Netenyahu is, but wasn’t sure which double speak the U.S. is officially using? Are we still supposed to be pretending it’s an “intervention” and therefore not illegal?

          What’s the deal with it? Something like 90% of the US gov takes AIPAC funding for 1. This has been a long, and arduous process that Israel has undertaken in order to do this. There have been multiple US politicians at this point that have stated out loud that their allegiances are with Israel, and not the US.

          They want to complete the greater Israel project, and Iran would be the only true opposition to this, so they have to go. It’s not a coincidence that Israel is currently ethnically cleansing southern Lebanon while all of this is happening.

        Well imagine you’re in Iran: you don’t have weapons, you don’t have any chance to organize… What is going to stop the oppression?

        Sad to say but something like this really is the only chance they have

      How stupid do you need to be to not be able to condemn a clearly stupid and horrible war but not think that that automatically makes the victim country a “good” country

        Unfortunately very stupid. Also unfortunately, a bar many people seem to surpass, like the above commenter and a few others in the comments.
