I've worked with Iranians. They were decent people and were like everyone else. They wanted family, security, you know - human stuff. It's government fronts representing military arms sales that stoke these fires. Until we all see this for what it is and collectively demand it to stop, this planet will never be safe.

I worked in Iran. They lie. They probably decieved you. Remember a million people welcomed the monster and madman Ayatollah Khomeni back to Iran to drag the country back to dark ages. Let them shout their infantile anti american slogans but for sure they will be arrested and tortured if they criticize their own despotic government.

In 1979? 

In 1979 millions of Iranian people welcomed the mad mullah  Ayatollah Khomeni back to Iran to create an Islamic dictatorship. Ha ha ha. That worked out well.

That attitude has worked so well for the nation these past decades.

 

 

Iranians are great people. Well, all the ones not aligned with the government. Same <deleted> as the communist revolutions in the 70s. The have nots finally bested the haves. The dogma and propaganda is just for show. just another mafia government

If only allowing Jews to vote is democratic all righty then. How many non Jews sit in the parliment? How many non Jews hold any positions of real power? It's an apartheid state.

Iranian people i know and have met are indeed lovely people. They definately dont want to be like US or live in US but they detest the mullahs and just want to get on with their lives.

I used to think of countries that held staged demos with chating people to be an example of true third and second world behavior, but now with Trump and his taxpayer funded political rallies I find it is also a sign of rabid idiots in first world country, re: USA

And donce's cap to the politicians of the time who decided it was better not to support the Shah of Iran Mohammad Reza Chah Pahlavi!

Really?

 

Please explain why Israel routinely bombs, rockets, uses helicopter gunships to regularly attack Iran, Iraq, Gaza, Lebanon.

 

Where I come from that is not a democratic state.

A 1953 coup instigated by the United Kingdom and the United States resulted in greater autocratic rule under Mohammad Reza Pahlavi and growing Western political influence.

 

That worked out well didn't it?

 

What was wrong with the Iranians wanting their own country back for themselves?

Because Israel is a democracy whose people, informed by a free press, vote to elect a government to protect them from violent neighbours like Iran who threaten and act to destroy them.

Many arabs sit in the Knesset   the  Israeli  parliament! The Arab bloc prevented Netanyahu gaining a clear majority in the recent election. ISRAEL IS THE ONLY country in the Middle East where Arab citizens get a democratic vote. Don't let your anti Israeli ant anti semitism get in the way of the facts. Ha ha ha.

The fact that you keep wanting to be critical of Israel in a thread about Iran and the thread has nothing to do with Israel, says everything you need to know

not only its totally irrelevant to OP, but also misleading.

 

Israel does NOT attack Gaza or Syria or Iran, 

 

Israel responds to rockets being fired from Gaza and does preemptive strikes on Iranian installations which are used to store weapons to attack Israel if not directly, then via proxy's.

 

So NO, Israel does not attack Syria or Iran as a country.

Are you denying there's a two-way street? Or is it just those Juden that are inflaming everything while those peace-loving Iranians, Syrians and Gaza people sit there trying to hold hands and sing Kumbaya?

I worked for an Irani owned Singapore company, travelled there, and still have many good friends. Yes they are very lovely people and culturally have their own unique version of Thai style. 

 

But the population is divided between religious conservatives and a very modern pro-Western style. The latter enjoyed complete freedom under the Shah and can't wait to get rid of the Mullahs. 

 

Currently men wear beards and no ties as a symbol against the West but this is all for show. Many are said to carry razors in their shirt pockets to shave as soon as the Mullahs are gone. When they are, you will discover a very Westernised country open for business. This would not be true of the Arab countries.

 

Attempts to disconnect Trump and recent hostilities between Iran and USA from the OP are simply pedantic.

In a week's time dozens of countries worldwide will commemorate the end of World War 1 but they are not just remembering the dead of more than 100 years ago.

 

The Iranians chanting Death to America are motivated by the fact that USA and the allies it supports in the Middle East want death to Iran. The USA is trying to strangle the Iranian economy through sanctions initiated by Trump's reckless reneging on a nuclear deal that was working.

 

Many Iranians, mainly the most vulnerable have already died through lack of medicine and treatment caused by needless American sanctions. So I can well understand Iranian anger.

Where you, indeed?

 

and then you decided to share that as hearsay, vs the more correct form of sharing a link to verify your statement... and then?

 

lol... and then doubling down with a pithy “ don’t let the truth get in the way of a good rant”, when, in fact, your reply (included herein), is some 20% longer than my “rant” that you quoted.
