    It’s not just their total disconnect from history (were they born yesterday?), it’s their translating scorn for Israel’s actions in the region to mean that Israel’s opponents must be the good guys.

    Iran has been under the control of two different mullahs for the last 45 years. Just because the Shah was bad doesn’t make the Ayatollahs good.

    Hamas and Hezbollah are literally terrorist organizations, and Hamas holds onto power in Gaza by oppression and violence. If they both weren’t getting massive support from Iran, there might be a negotiating partner for Israel in Palestine like Arafat was.

    Without Iran’s support, Russia would be failing much faster in Ukraine as well.

      Iran has been under the control of two different mullahs for the last 45 years.

      And to gain that control, they blatantly lied in 1979 and told everyone they supported democracy and would not be involved in government. They KNEW that people wanted freedom and democracy and so they just lied about it to gain control.

      Without Iran’s support, Russia would be failing much faster in Ukraine as well.

      One good thing about this is that Iran will have much fewer drones left to give to Putin to kill Ukranians.

      “terrorist organizations” by the designation of countries who currently commit or support the committment of genocide. Of course states and their militaries committing acts of terror somehow don’t end in a designation as “terrorist organizations”

      Meanwhile Israel is arming gangs with ISIS ties in Gaza to pillage humanitarian aid, while the Hamas “terrorists” try to defend that aid.

      However none of the states that designate Hamas as “terrorist organization” will give Israel consequences for being a “terrorist supporter” despite arming “terrorists” with ISIS ties. ISIS that has committed terror attacks in the countries allied to Israel, which neither Hamas nor Hezbollah have done.
