  • Since yesterday, I may have spent some time listening to what Iranian people have to say about the subject. You’re assumption about it being like Afghanistan 2 is completely off.

    The US has a record of replacing a dictator with even worse US friendly dictators. Not to mention if the regime doesn’t fall this will be a bloody campaign, the bombs alone can easily kill more than 30,000 Iranians.

    The Israel-Hamas war lasted more than two years. Iran’s government killed about half the number killed in a two years long war in just two days. But you didn’t see too many photos of it so you pretend that a bombing campaign is going to be worse.

    Why do you care so little about Iranians? If Israel killed 30,000 Palestinians in just two days would you still be “meh, don’t care, not my problem”?


  • Right now everyone in the resistance is saying to stay inside while the bombing campaign is happening. They will wait for the signal to start the uprising. Because obviously taking to the streets when there’s a bombing campaign happening is a really dumb thing to do.

    Consider that this site might not be giving you all of the information about what’s happening in Iran.

    No way to know how many will take to the streets when they’re told “it’s time”. Last time it was millions. The regime machine gunned down tens of thousands, bodies piled up in the streets, really horrific. This time I’d guess the resistance is going to have weapons air dropped to them and some drone support and intel. Should even things up.

    There are very few people in Iran that don’t know someone that was executed by the regime and the IRGC is being decimated. If the members of the IRGC were smart, they’d get out while they can, though I don’t know who would take them. I suppose Russia is always looking for some more criminals to send to the front lines.

    Best of luck to the resistance when the time comes.


  • What would be a worse situation than someone saying they want to destroy other countries while building nuclear weapons?

    And you seem to be ignoring them massacring people by the tens of thousands. If you have the stomach for it maybe read a little bit about what happened in Iran in the last few months.

    Or is it because Trump might not really care about it that means you don’t care about it either? What kind of logic is that?

    Why is it you see Iranians on the streets with both the pre-republic Iranian flag along with the Israeli flag? Do you think they’re so naive that they don’t know anything about Israel or Gaza? Have you considered that what they’re going through has made them so desperate they will accept help from any country with the willingness to overthrow the Ayatollah?

    Just because you’re not seeing imagery of the atrocities the Iranian government has done, doesn’t mean they didn’t happen. Piles of bodies on the streets 30,000 people executed in a 48 hour period and you’re talking about “well things could be worse!”

    Maybe you hate Trump and Netanyahu, but do you have no empathy for the Iranians killed by the Ayatollah’s regime?



  • The Iranian nation has had their autonomy taken away from them, first by Khamenei and now by the US and Israel.

    Are you saying they got their autonomy back in the last month after that asshole executed 30,000 people? Pretty sure they didn’t have autonomy for quite a few decades now. They have slim chance to take it back. The odds are the IRGC will hold onto control, but it’s ridiculous to imply they somehow lost autonomy twice. You either got it or you don’t and with the IRGC around they don’t have autonomy.

    In you’re little analogy is the abusive dad always saying he wants to kill me and was handing out guns to people in the neighbourhood, telling them to take shots at me, which resulted in one of my kids getting killed? Then the abusive dad starts putting together a bazooka, all the while saying he’s going to kill me?

    Your analogy kinda sucks. The abusive person is up to all kinds of shit in the neighbourhood and gets himself killed. If he was abusing his family and not going out into the neighbourhood and causing shit, he probably wouldn’t have gotten killed. But he’d still be a shitbag.

    The wife and kids may or may not be upset by him getting killed, but I wouldn’t expect anyone in the neighbourhood to stick up for an abuser like you currently seem to be doing. Very bizarre to attempt of some analogy to be all “think of the children” over a guy that was such a terrible person.
