Iran is a lesson to all: as soon as Israel or the US take a disliking to you you have to rush for nuclear weapons.
Iran has been the grown up in the room for well over a decade at this stage and it didn't matter one bit. You cannot appease Israel or the US because that don't want to be appeased, they want to bomb Iran into a lawless wasteland. They could have switched to a secular liberal democracy and it'd make no difference.
- TiredOfLife 7mo agoIran makes the drones that russia uses to attack Ukraine every day. Iran makes the rockets Houthis use to attack ships. Iran provides rockets andgunding to Hezbollah and Hamas. Iran is a terrorist state.
- heyheyhouhou 7mo agoI guess it depends from which angle you see this. Things are not black & white. A big chunk of the world sees the US as the biggest terrorist state in the world, followed up by Israel...
- TiredOfLife 7mo agoIran and russia are pretty black. Without any white
- samrus 7mo agoTrue. Your enemies are ontologically evil
- Hikikomori 7mo agoUsa makes the bombs that israel uses to attack gaza every day.
- rando1234 7mo agoDon't know why you are being down voted. I mean Iran had a democracy that was toppled by the CIA when they tried to nationalise their resources in favour of a puppet dictator. If the US cared so much about human rights why not go invade Saudi Arabia.

- rando1234 7mo agoMy point is that any Americans claiming moral legitimacy for these actions due to human rights considerations should give us all a break. And are you really claiming the CIA was not involved in instigating a coup to bring in the Shah?
- Rapzid 7mo agoI'm not sure what claims and what actions you are even talking about. Let's get on the same page.. Is the action taking out the Ayatollah and Ali Khamenei?
- orwin 7mo agoI know someone whose clan was involved (still were when I last talked to him, before the US left Afghanistan). Of course the CIA/MI6 used local support, but they did have an impact on when, who and how. And on the power structure from 53 onwards.
