      It’s really, really important for people to understand that Iranians wanting Khamenei gone is NOT the same thing as Iranians wanting the US and Israel to bomb their country.

      I’ll shed no tears for the end of Khomenei or the IRGC. I’ll shed endless tears for Iranian civilians. As I have since 2006, I hope the Iranian people can change the world.

        Yeah. I don’t like intervention. I just was taught to always center their opinions before my own wants.

        I wouldn’t have chosen any of this. I just hope that somehow this turns out well for them.

        I feel like a lot of people misunderstood me.

          LOL, ok Cheney. I’m sure this regime change war is different. All those other times we attacked “one of the most horrific regimes in the world” where the good people just needed a little boost to overthrow them it didn’t work out that way because… reasons. This time it’s going to be quick an easy and we’ll definitely be the good guys!

              Dude. I’m willing to tell a foreign power my governing regime is horrific and we’d welcome invasion right now. There were Venezuelans asking for invasion, Iraqis asking for invasion, Afghanis asking for invasion. Do you think all those other countries didn’t have both bad regimes and opposition who wanted them gone? How’d that work out for us?

              Were you perchance born yesterday?
