    Where you conflicted when two Nazi states destroyed much more than $300bn and killed a lot of civilians including children in an illegal offensive war, though?

      Are you referring to when the USSR and Nazi Germany invaded poland together, or…?

      Jokes aside I think Trump is an incompetent buffoon who has only helped the IRGC hold power. The smart play would have been arming and empowering the rebels with food and medical supplies.

                Which part of the genocide convention can be used to say Iran and hamas are responsible for the genocide that Israel is comiting with the usa and the west weapons and money?

                So you believe its Iran’s fault that Israel is committing genocide? That was the question and you didn’t address it.

                    Oh god this argument.

                    But but hamas is bad, they made us commit genocide against Palestine, we had no choice but to restrict water, food and medical supplies while bombing children because Hamas… Iran is actually at fault too you know.

                    Fuck off with this whataboutism. Israel is evil and pointing to Iran serves no purpose but to muddy the waters in Israel’s favour.

          Indeed, didn’t the Orange even sent Kurds the weapons for Iran resistance only for Kurds to keep them?

          It couldn’t go worse than continued IRGC rule.

          A while back Tankie complained to me about taking Ghadafi out (which is kind of the same problematic tactic of not supporting a resistance capable of replacing them) because now Libya is stuck an anarchy with human slavery…

          But the thing is, Ghadafi started the human slavery trade in Libya.

            Couldn’t go worse? Pinochet, Branco and all the other dictatorships the US put in place would like a word. America helped the Mujahedeen, which led to the Taliban, Al Qaeda and ISIS for fuck’s sake. They are magnitudes worse than the Islamic Republic, it’s not even close.

              Yes, and? I can’t see this as anything other than a defense of the IRGC?

              It’s like “we have dictatorship, which kills hundreds of thousands, yes, but other dictator could be worse you know?”

              Like bro

                Your point was that it can’t get worse than the Islamic Republic, and I provided examples on how it can actually get worse ?

                    I’m not arguing on the label, whether it’s a Republic or not. I’m arguing that it can, in fact, be a lot worse than the Iranian regime.
