To be fair, the Iranian theocracy kinda deserves this.
Not that that is the reason the US and Israel is doing it.
Your government is oppressing you. We will bomb your schools. You’re welcome.
I mean... It's been working for them for like... 80 years? Why stop now?
Turns out the school was hit due to a failed Iranian ballistic missle.
But the sentiment holds. We bomb you for your freedom.
Would that missile been fired if they hadn't been attacked?
We broke it, we bought it.
Why is an ballistic missle launcher close to an city in the first place? Its not like its a weapon defending the city.
Source? The only thing I’m seeing that suggests that is this article that just says “maybe it was fake, because that would be a good war strategy.” https://www.meforum.org/mef-observer/be-careful-about-blaming-the-united-states-or-israel-for-killing-iranian-schoolgirls.
The Islamic Republic is dogshit, but unfortunately, it is the Iranian people who will be the primary victims here.
Yeah, 2 wrongs don’t make a right
They will, but the leadership has already taken a serious hit. This isn't one of those situations where the people pay, while the leader goes into exile on some tropical island.
Okay, but like Iraq, that doesn't actually make the situation for ordinary people better. It might feel less fucked, to have some of the slite iced for their horrific crimes, but the fundamental issue remains.
I get it, it won't be good for the citizens, but at least they don't have to suffer knowing their exiled leader is living it up in Dubai or somewhere else luxurious.
Cold comfort, unfortunately.
Well, yeah, but at least they know that when they finally emerge from the darkness, the guy who caused all the trouble isn't going to come back and take over again.
You really need to read up on ayatollah and the extragovernmental hierarchy that has been set up specifically so that they can keep political power in this exact situation. All we have accomplished is guaranteed radicalization of the upcoming generations of Iranians. We will not be bringing that Iranian people from darkness.
Valid perspective, thank you. You're right, I really don't know much about the subject.
What I do know, is that you can't trust ANYTHING Trump or MAGA says, as well as the fact that they are virtuosically incompetent, so sooner or later, this is going to turn bad for us.
Fo shizzle, everybody sucks in this situation, I hope they all lose.
