USA unilateral sanctions of Iran are not only ilegal but inhumane and criminal.

  Many view sanctions as war crimes because sanctions, though they superficially target officials/companies/etc, are meant to undermine a nation's economy and hurt the civilian population to pressure foreign governments. Essentially the goal is to starve the men, women and children in order to punish foreign governments. If it was iran or china or russia doing it, we would be calling it a war crime or a crime against humanity. But since we are doing it, we just call it "economic warfare".

    sure, let them develop an economy and build nukes / destabilise the region even more. if anything there is already a bad experience with saudi arabia, and we dont want a repeat. the people of iran if they dont support that murderous government should overthrow it. simple as.

        particularly the US. i hear democracy is bad and apparently the us is ebil for giving those people an opportunity to organise instead of terrorise. funny world we live in. where we now support dictators and call those who liberate “destabilisers”. but yeah the others are pretty toxic.
