US > Iran conflict begins

good point. I should probably specify that ----Iran is being actively bombed at for 40 days now.

There is a reason why there is a growing number of scholars with a staunch anti imperialist advocacy.

I think Ian was also referring to the era of the Shah of Persia and the Ayatollahs' rise to power through brute force. I might be wrong, but that’s how I interpreted it..


Clearly, we don't remember those who died during that coup; they are just the 'necessary price' for an illegitimate revolution. Not that the Shah was any better, but just look at the photos from before and after the Ayatollahs...

I was referring to CIA and MI5 fuckery.

Cheers,

Exactly. From the '53 Ajax fuckery to the '79 fallout, it's a long chain of events where the bill is always paid by the same people..

Unsurprising considering the power alliances in that region. Also entertaining how the official framed it as such. Many of these were corporate assets such as Amazon Data centers and petrochemical processing stations co owned by the state and private actors. The article was framed such that it looked like residential neighborhoods were bombed, when actually it was rich-people owned infra like the hotels on Palm Jumeirah.

Iran was honestly strategic and precise ----it targetted assets with very clear US or Israel alliances and/or assets that will very clearly hurt the US economy. Iran also issued advisories to civilians, if I am not mistaken.

Meanwhile, Palestinian civilians are being raped, murdered, and buried alive by IDF soldiers without remorse.

the weighing scale is tipping a certain why, but which one is actually more evil?
 
I usually think my imagination is upper crust on account of the Ne+ADHD, but I’m weaksauce next to this stuff. 🤪
