Hey. Out of curiosity, why did Iranian diaspora stop celebrating the conflict in the streets over the past week? It would be difficult for the US and Israel to justify starting the war this way, I hope you continue the celebrations.

I used to not use one either, and used Aurora Store for certain apps. But at some point, my bank's app stopped working if I installed it from Aurora Store, and would only work from the play store. Since then I've seen a lot more a

Terrorists already have nuclear weapons. Of course no country having nukes is ideal, but in absence of that possibility everyone having them is better, unless your reasoning is "I hope my side has them and the other side doesn't.&
