    You know what I think? I think it’s none of our damn business. Do you see Iran sending troops to stop Mexican cartels? Maybe it’s not americas damn job to police the other side of the world, especially when their own country is a dumpster fire.
    This past few years even the American left has decided they’re the world police.

    My perception of Iran from the last 40 years has been steered by Iranians i personally know who fled the regime. By your logic let’s ignore all the people Fidel Castro murdered and imprisoned illegally for decades, cause our views of him are painted by fleeing Cubans. You are likely too young to remember the actual atrocities, murders, rapes, mass executions. So you think it was bloodless and “the country seems chill”

    Castro is a good comparison, all you guys remember a quirky old bearded man with a cigar who looks harmless. Cause you weren’t around for the bloody rise to power and executions
