Reading the posts on social media and it bothers me. I sense the happiness some express for the Iranian governments plight. Look, I listen to all media, especially the far-left, European and even Candace Owens who I never listened to before the Charlie Kirk assassination. I realised that I need to understand a broader opinion instead of just an Echo Chamber. Iran succeeding ensures Iranians suffer. Their regime have oppressed their citizens for nearly 50 years.
Snidely, the only people making the Iranian people suffer are the US, imposing 50 years of sanctions, because they overthrew our puppet and created a form of government we don't like.
There was no good reason for this war. The Iranians were at the negotiating table when Bibi forced Trump's hand and attacked. (And probably told him he'd release the Epstein files, we all know Epstein was a Mossad Asset.)
I get some criticism of Bibi's far-right coalition (Bibi was forced into it and it hurt his reputation), they are not very popular in Israel either, far less than Bibi himself. I get some criticism of Trump seeming to avoid the critical cost of living issue which Americans (and all of us really) are experiencing.. However, I do NOT get spiritual or emotional support for Irans government.. This has been a vile regime that funds terrorism and they are very close with China.
Are the Chinese in the room with us right now?
What you call terrorism are people fighting against governments they don't like that we prop up. We were perfectly happy to let the Iranians help in crushing ISIS in Iraq and Syria after we unleashed them with our half-assed attempts at Regime Change.
Our Middle East policy is sticking our dicks in a hornet's nest, and complaining about getting stung. Here's a crazy idea, let's not stick our dicks in the Hornet's nest.
I am not sure I agreed with how this war began, especially without logistics on the ground and a solid regime change plan, however, I am not privy to all the details and facts. Regardless, now that it has begun, I stand 100% behind America and Israel in prevailing. I will not now or ever support the death of innocents, I will not support bad decisions, I will support those who believe in liberty. I read and sense that the far-left actually support Iran and they quietly (sometimes not so quietly) hope Iran and China win. This is frightening.
Maybe you SHOULD think about how this war began. The problem I see with this war is that we learned not a thing from Iraq or Afghanistan, or for that matter, Vietnam. We blunder into these foreign adventures with no idea about the countries where we are sticking our dicks, and then we wonder why we get stung.
Wall Street and too many unpatriotic corporations have contributed to decades of this warped, self defeating view of the world in their greed for "globalism" (which really just means "China-First", let them have our Middle Class).
Globalism is inevitable. And overall, it's a good thing. You are blaming China for what American businesses and American consumers did to themselves. Instead of being mad at the Chinese (who basically, are some of the nicest people you'd ever want to meet) for getting globalism right, we should look at what they've done, see what could be emulated to build on our own success.
Certainly a lot smarter than imposing a lot of crippling tariffs on our own consumers.
No one should celebrate any military success of Iran and their backers any more than they did of Russia vs Ukraine. Support liberty and Judeo-Christian values. If anyone believes their replacement will make for a better society, you had better read history books and re-assess your position. Disagree with policies, do NOT disagree systems.
I have read history books. The thing I learned from history books is that no one likes another country telling them what kind of government they should have. The Ayatollah might be a jerk, but he's THEIR jerk. If the Iranians themselves can't be bothered to overthrow him, we shouldn't get involved.
Criticism and a desire to improve the existing system is far superior to it's alternative. Some need to really look in the mirror and realise that rooting against America and its allies because you dislike Trump and the manufactured hatred against him (some vitriol on his part did not help the matter I cannot deny) is asinine.
America and Israel need to succeed. Iran and especially its benefactor in China cannot succeed. Nuclear weapons can not continue to proliferate.
Iran only wants nukes (if they actually want nukes) because Israel has them.
The key thing is, most of our allies DON'T want this war. They know it's a bad idea. And if Trump weren't so effing arrogant, he would have listened to our allies when they told him this was a terrible idea.
