    This is fully right – the US is only interested in enforcing some agenda when they do not take a hit from it.

    Iran has made the blunder of refusing to say ‘uncle!’ over Israel.

      Actually, the bigger, more intense war is between the Arabs and Iran. Sunni/Shia conflict is more divisive than their hate of Israel.

      From what I understand, Iran had a western puppet regime, the “Shah”, just like many other countries, Egypt, Iraq etc. The people revolted, and now you have the Ayatolla

      Ever since the revolution, there has been various fights with the West… Iran is just really unlucky, that the US wanted to fuck with them.

      The US tried the same shenanigans with bigger countries, like India, they sent an Aircraft carrier to threaten it before it had an air force, as well as sanctions for testing nukes.

      But, India was too big to control. Iran is 1/15 the size.

      That’s all the US has done since Vietnam - picked fights with small countries, since they really can’t win bigger invasions. Colonisation always fails… who would have guessed.
