    Crazy Facebook Lady runs her own site now, I guess. One oligarch isn’t better or worse than another based on factors like religion or race. They’re always bad. Iranian despots are bad an so are American warmongers.

      Iranian leaders are objectively more moral than those in the United States. Which one of the two countries recently sponsored a genocide? The US.

        Iran also enabled the Gaza Genocide by arming and training Hamas to attack the music festival which reignited the war, so that example just proves how shallow your morality goes. It takes two to tango, as they say.

        Iranian leaders also killed about 30,000 of their own in protests in Tehran during the drought and starvation just before the war started.

        But regardless, it’s wild that you would even start comparing the two to justify one side after I said they can both be bad. did you expect me to sit here and sing USA’s praises? Trump’s no fucking better than that Ayatollah piece of shit in any regard, it’s amazing he allows his wife to go outside without a hood over her head.

              What part of the genocide convention csn be used to say Iran is complicit in the genocide Israel is doing. Israel is doing the genocide, china and russia do not care about the genocide, the west is backing israel genocide with diplomatic protections and weapons.

                  None of those article allude that Iran is complocit with the genocide. Iran did not arms Israel and did not provide diplomatic cover for Israel.

          You said “they’re both bad” (though I think you edited your comment). I said one is less bad than the other.

          the 30,000 number is propaganda slop fabricated by NED and the like. the fact that you’ve swallowed it shows you’re an uncritical thinker.

          Yes Iran armed Hamas, because it arms resistance groups against Israel. Resistance that is totally merited by the character of the genocidal Jewish supremacist state. This is commendable. Genocide is not!
