    The Iranians are fighting for the survival of their country against the nazi pedophile coalition. thet are in no way comparable to those fighting for the nazi pedophile imperialists, despite many aspects of Iranian governance being unsavoury.

      Okay just ignore the fact that 30k protestors were killed, the oppression of literally anything for decades and the killing of anyone who raised the voice against the Supreme Leader.

        I was going to give a proper reply explaining the historical and geopilitical context, but I realized it would be like arguing witth a German in 1941 why I want the Soviet Union to win the war rather than the Reich, so I’ll ixnay that. May Iran continue to strike hard at the American and Israeli aggressors, and may they humiliate the nazi pigs for all the world to see.

          Oh I agree, Israel has to be gone, and the fascist ‘muricans, too. But I also don’t mind that Khamenei is dead, as religious extremists are not one bit better than a zionist or nazi.

            I’ll take moderate shia theocrats over nazis any day, but I digress. The truth is that Iran’s government has hardline factions and moderate factions. Outrside aggression makes the hardline faction stronger, and if America just left Iran alone, the moderates would eventually be predominant and Iran would eventually moderate into a secular or quasi-secular state.

            However, at the same time the moderates are also the more neoliberal faction, while the religious conservatives are more economically progressive - kind of like Sharia law social democrats, in a sense.

              And you know what is funny about all the shit Israel now caused? The CIA is actually very good at overthrowing foreign governments from the inside. It probably would have worked for Iran, as there are too many people remembering the good old Persian days. But Bibi and his right wing Jews just made everything worse, even for the citizens of Israel and Palestine.

                The plan of economic sabotage and infiltration probably would have worked, but they’ve gone and shot themselves in the dick. They just can’t help it!
