        I think it’s pretty easy to say the following actually:

        Iran fucking sucks and is ass backwards politically. However, the US is beyond wrong in this conflict and is clearly the problem. The US has it wrong and needs to stop.

        The problem is, the first part doesn’t really need to be said since we all know this shit is evil. However, so many people think calling out the US doing war crimes is some open ended support of Irans politics.

          That’s all I’m saying. As an American, should I be doing everything in my power to stop this evil administration, or should I take a callow stance of “I support Iran” and do nothing? I think I’m seeing a lot of the latter, and it bothers me.

        How about I support the side that was attacked first with massive terror bombing campaigns against civilian targets that responded with missile attacks that almost entirely focused on military targets.

        Seriously. America started the war by double tapping a girls school intentionally. Almost 200 girls between 9-12 were murdered in that terrorist bombing attack.

        And I use the word intentionally as even fucking Google maps knew it was a girls school. First strike packages are the most carefully researched and selected targets in any war.

        One side committed the war crime of perfidy during negotions, assassinated the pope of the Muslims, and murdered 200 Iranian schoolgirls on the first day. You’re not going to pick a side?
