You’re responding an awful lot for someone who doesn’t care :)

That’s the first coherent take you had so far.

Lol, my gf is not Iranian then. Thanks for letting me know. I’ll tell to just not bother with putting on a hijab anymore when she visits her family.

The bombing campaign will do absolutely nothing to topple the regime. Israel has now hit orphanages and residential areas.

The people already hate this regime.

Also known as putting words into people’s mouths.

Ask any Iranian woman. Jina got beaten to death for not wearing her veil correctly.

Shut, and I cannot stress this enough, the fuck up.

In 2009, the government killed 1.500 people because they went out to ask were their votes went. 10 years later they killed the same amount because people protested an overnight gas price hike of 100%. Then they killed a similar amount, because they beat a Kurdish woman to death for not wearing a hijab. Last year, a wave of gas attacks on girls schools happened and the government looked the other way.

Mossadegh would have led Iran to a better future. Both the Shah and the IRI Ran It into the ground.

Almost as if two thing can be shit at the same time

This isn’t about siding with anyone. You’re putting words in my mouth. I never said the majority would not take up arms, I said there are groups who are ikely not to pick up arms.

There is no Iranian nationality, there is a core of Persian Iranians, who are considered the only Iranians and then there are peripheral groups. Those groups neither feel Iranian, nor do they like the central government.

Just listed you 3 major groups who do not see themselves as Iranian, because the country doesn’t do that either.

Iran has 82 million inhabitants.

The amount of people willing to die for this regime is much much smaller. 16% are Azerí, 10% Kurds and 2% Balochi, all groups who would rather die than fight for the IRI. Not that this would stop the IRI from pressing 15 year olds into service, but there wouldn’t be many volunteers.

The IR brutalizes its people, but doesn’t treat other countries directly that way

It would be political suicide

Re: Chattel Slavery: Egypt after the 7th century, Subsaharan Africa and after the Trans-Atlantic trade was shut down, the trans-saharan and red sea trade continued to ship Chattel slaves to the Middle East. Mauretania abolished it’s Chattel Slavery system legally in 1981, but the practice continues to this day.

Everywhere, where humans established empires, they dehumanized and colonized. Claiming that somehow western Europeans specifically are inherently more prone to doing that.

Even the claim “since Jesus’ birth” false. In the meantime, especially in the early years, there were larger empires than the “western European” ones.

God I hate this myth. The Eastern world had its fair share of absolute dehumanization, be it the extreme brutality in education systems (Pol Pot claimed to have been beaten senseless by teachers multiple times for minor infractions and he had seen this as normal), the Mongol Empire razing cities on a monthly basis or the countless bloody civil wars in Chinese history. Name me a culture and I will name you the ways in which they dehumanized others.

Do they include period prediction now?

Killing a well known swedish citizen would be political suicide. Murdering thousands of Palestinians isn’t.
