[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How can you speak for the Iranian people? There are 90 million of them. By generalizing your perspective to everyone, you really showed your hand.

As an American, I may dislike Donald Trump but that doesn’t mean I want the White House and Pentagon to get firebombed by a foreign nation as part of a regime change war.

Politics and patriotism are two separate orders of business. A real person wouldn’t want their home country entangled in a war.

+1.

Easy for OP to say when they are sitting comfortably in the U.S.

If the regime is as weak as OP says, then Iranians should topple it themselves. [/quote]

Exactly! The US shouldn't be the world's nanny + cop. Iran hates the US...why should we rescue it? And, as an earlier poster said, Iranians call themselves " Persian" to honor their ancient heritage.

To be clear -- the vast majority of Iranian do NOT hate Americans. On the contrary. They have been suppressed by this government since the coup and its been awful for them.[/quote]

And they’re going to love us even more when we bomb their families! We will be greeted in the streets as liberators just like Iraq![/quote]

My point was only in response to the PP who write "Iran hates the US - why should we rescue it?" Of course the regime hates the US - but Iranians do not.

My father and brother in law are stuck in Tehran now. They cannot get out as traffic is sit still, and gas lines are even longer (and then you can only get so much gas after waiting for hours). It is a very tough situation to say the least. Iranians hate their government but also know that Netanyahu and Trump are not their saviors by any means. They are pawns and it is gut wrenching. I hope, somehow, a silver lining comes out of it for the people. [/quote]
