Iran, a country of 93 million, with a civilization that is thousands of years old, shouldn't exist? Huh?


Nobody has a problem with Persian people and its long history. The Persian people will exist for a thousand more and hopefully be celebrated again.

Instead, we have a problem with its current deranged regressive, oppressive and murderous regime that has only existed since 1979 and absolutely should not still exist in 2029.

Current Iran didn't exist before 1979 and current China didn't exist before 1949. Talk of "thousands of years old" doesn't make much sense when they've essentially thrown most of it away with "cultural revolutions" - whether Khomeini's or Mao's.


Well, with your line of reasoning “current” Iran only existed because we were scared of Russian influence and our CIA meddled to overthrow the democratically elected popular non religious nut in the 70s. So “current” Iran is of our own making. Not sure our involvement this time around is ending up any better.



If the non-religious guy was so popular then why did they let the not-so-popular religious nut take over?

Or is it your hypothesis that America wanted the religious nut?

You seem to be flailing here...


This is historical fact backed up by documents released from the CIA. https://www.pbs.org/newshour/amp/world/in-first-cia-acknowledges-1953-coup-it-backed-to-overthrow-leader-of-iran-was-undemocratic

I got the decade wrong but here’s the sequence:

- Popular left leaning elected leader
- CIA helped stage a coup to replace him with the Shah
- Shah was corrupt and overthrown by religious nut who promised help for the poor (and fulfilled many of those promised but of course is a crazy religious zealot responsible for many horrible things and suppression of women’s rights)

My new policy idea is that before declaring war or violence on a country we should be forced to take a history class so our leaders and citizens understand the factual, documented history of that country. Any candidates what to take that up?

DP. The shah was brutal and the country was poorer then. The ayatollah was a social revolution for the poor who just happen to be more religious. Nobody’s giving up free college and healthcare for another US puppet and an another war. The Iranians who celebrate the ayatollahs death here in the west were the wealthy class who lost their wealth and land when the ayatollahs nationalized it for the poor. It’s like Cuban Americans who celebrated when Fidel Castro died. However, mainland Cubans who are poorer for the most part liked him

Replace MAGA with Israel and you’re right. MAGA is not happy about another forever war


A lot of them think that this is going to last a few weeks, and it's a small price to pay for "peace and prosperity forever". I wish I were kidding.


No one thinks this, but nice try. If anything, many people are happy to see a terrorist regime defeated, or at least greatly diminished. Why aren’t you?


What was defeated? The ayatollahs are still there and the regime change failed three times in less than 12 months. The ayatollah is not the shah of Iran and he’s not Saddam Hussein. They were too decadent so it was easy for the people to rise up and tear them down. The ayatollah helped the poor in Iran to rise up with free education, healthcare, and most controversially, wealth redistribution which is why Iranian Americans and in London (the wealthy class pre Islamic Revolution) hate him. It’s like Cubans in Cuba liking Castro but rich Cubans in Miami hating him.

The only way to ply a regime change out of Iran would be US boots on the ground.



Are you legit praising the ayatollah?! I hope you’re not a woman


OMG. Not PP and a woman with critical thinking skills here. I would never praise the Ayatollah but knowing the facts of why he’s popular among is what all thinking people should do. As much as our leaders have done to make other countries “evil” there is history and nuance that is important to grasp if we ever really want to solve problems.



Your critical thinking skills left out the part where the only reason he's so "popular" is because he will murder or imprison anyone who says he isn't popular.


So this is all because Trump is jealous?


DP. Because he’s a narcissist.

Look how much influence Israel, a tiny nation, has over the United States, a country with 300 million people. It’s to the point where our representatives are like zombies when they talk about a country most people don’t really care about in real life.

I think you give too much credit to the US. They've done stupid things all across the world that have eventually backfired. Or it could have been part of a larger plan to create a boogeyman.
