Probably worth pointing out that neither Israel nor the US seem interested in occupying Iranian territory.
The US didn't occupy Iraq territory after 2003 and they still murdered hundreds of thousands in cold blood and destroyed an entire country, leaving it without infrastructure or future prospects, to be ravaged by radicalism and poverty.
They want to do this to Iran too. Please stop jumping to defend the western genocidal empire

Let's not pretend things were going well under Saddam Hussein either.
phew! thank fuck for that!
so i guess the unprovoked bombing of another sovereign nation is not all that bad, then? what's the blood of a few innocent people after all, eh? it's not like there are going to be boots on the ground, am i right?
Guess it'll be fine to nuke every US city, as long as there's no plan to occupy the rubble afterwards
It really isn't but thanks for trying to contribute to the conversation I guess
Press x doubt.
They did it with Iraq, Afghanistan and Vietnam. They will definitely do it again if they see a chance to remove the Iranian regime and replace it with their own.
Do you think removing the Ayatollahs would make things better or worse for the Iranian people?
