Oh you’re right… it’s totally worth spending 37bn+ on a war to protect US child raping ruling class from justice.
Maybe there’s other countries you deem bad we can indiscriminately bomb on behalf of Israel?
It seems like you may be malfunctioning. That's a wild non-sequitur.
Who are you having that conversation with? And why are you replying to me?
You seem intent on pointing out Iran is bad, in spite of the fact that the reason it’s in the spotlight is mainly as a distraction from punishment at home.
“Iran bad” is irrelevant to you. You are clearly not Iranian; it literally doesn’t matter what you think about Iranians government to compare them to the two governments that almost certainly relevant to you. They can deal with their own problems internally, and the imperialist two shithead governments deserve the full weight of criticism.
So yeah, welcome to conversations online clearly you are new to them as people can discuss things, and reply to your comments.
Reply to me, not the argument you wish I was making.
I'll simplify for you: Fuck the US. Fuck Iran. Fuck this war.
If you want to talk to someone saying something different than that, go find them and talk to them.
“But guys, Iran bad too!” -non Iranian who’s not getting bombed by aggressor states.
Wow, great commentary there buddy.
