Iran is an insane unhinged country, I seriously wish we could help them and Afghans because the mess we left in Afghanistan is really heartbreaking to see
Didn't US intervention lead to this problem?
Afghanistan was like this before US intervention when Russia invaded
Russia didn't invade, it was literally invited into the country by a socialist democracy (but I repeat myself)
Also no, youre wrong. The base of power was with tribal leaders, not oriented around far right religious extremism.
