Why would one try to dissuade you from being correct?

Trump posted many times about this when Obama was president.

Jesus Christ what a loser. I miss back before 2015 when I didn't have to listen to this dude spew racist nonsense on the national stage and I could just ignore him.

And I guess add that to the list of "Donald Trump criticizing Donald Trump" tweets.

God fucking damn is this guy the everlasting champion of saying anything and everything all of the time. Fucking cult leader ass loser

Firstly: I'm not saying that bombing other countries is good. Authoritarian leaders also suck.

HOWEVER, I think this is better than Venezuela. In Iran, people are fighting for their lives and thousands have died to the repressive regime. In Venezuela, the US simply took out the leader and turned the country into their Colonial subject.. there was no revolution to speak of, they just attacked. In Iran they're at least helping the population in some way because they're already fighting and they are fighting with no weapons.

Ryan Chapman had the honour of speaking to people from Iran who say that it's hard for people in the west to quite conceive it but they are praying for war and intervention from abroad because they are running out of options. It's a great video, I'd recommend watching it.

i can only agree but a similar thing is happening in the US, should the rest of the world bomb them to help their citizens in the struggle for freedom ? what about Belarus, they had huge riots and 1000s were killed, bombing them next ? Serbia has been rioting a protesting for years, bombing them ?

Overcook chicken? bomb. Undercook chicken? believe it or not, bomb.

Let's be clear. I don't support bombing anyone. I'm honestly just interested in what people think. There were no comments on this post so I thought maybe I could ignite some conversation because I'm curious.

I'm guessing nobody watched the video I posted which is fine it's half an hour long ago I get it, but I do think it'll give people more perspective. We don't know how many Iranians want foreign interventions, but if all people in Iran who oppose the government (which is up to 81% according to stats), is it then, right to bomb the Iranian government? If the people themselves said "please bomb our repressive government!"?

I'm not to say what's right or wrong and I also don't know how much is true, but I think it's worth thinking about. We don't even know it would lead to any kind of good outcome in the aftermath. It could lead to more chaos and/or a more repressive regime for all we know.

Edit: screw everything I said, they're bombing schools in Iran now

How about you mind your own damn business and leave other countries along?
