They wanna do the same in iran, have a puppet regime that follows their commands instead of doing the best for the populace

Just like Saddam for Iraq and Bin Laden for Afghanistan.

They actually did until it backfired on them and now Iran is ultra conservative and the only Middle East nation not a shill state.

In other words: they want to continue destabilising the middle east to get the cheap oil.

Why don’t we just tell them how to run their country? /s

We’re such assholes. I can’t wait until half of our geriatric government leaders die off and maybe some saner (younger) people can have a say.

No thanks on the nationalist "we". It's much more important to resist the actual sources of oppression than to implicated largely innocent people like yourself and others on lemmy.
