I am against the US intervening in other countries internal affairs too, but to be honest I really can't make up my mind this time.
Iran has repeatedly reached far out of its borders, mostly by funding terrorist ogranisations and selling weapons to Russia for its war in Ukraine.

Funding terrorism has led to sanctions from the West, which sanctions have contributed to an economic crisis.
People are literally starving and are not even allowed to protest about it, in a country of 90m people.

And the result is this:



What if a regime change can make the world safer and Iran a prosperous country?

You can be against the Iranian theocracy and its right-wing political parties and also be against Israel and the US’s military invasion. The motivations of the US/Israel and actions have nothing to do with the plight of the Iranian people; that conflict is merely a convenience for them. The current Iranian regime was facing an increased likelihood of ending without this attack. I’d argue that past Trump military assaults have been counterproductive toward natural social change in Iran.

If it hadn’t been for Trump’s sabotage around 2018, my guess is Iran and the West would be increasing openness, and continued compromises in the theocratic rules would move forward. The West and Iran were opening until Trump stepped over Western Civilization to launch military strikes and assassinations in Iran during his first term (that was Trump’s fault, not Iran’s) → you can see videos of Westerners, even Americans, enjoying vacations in Iran, seeing Shiraz and the Tomb of Cyrus of the Great.



I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.
