That was who fought back in 1979 after we installed a brutal dictator that reigned for over 20 years and sold off their assets to western nations etc.

If Russia attacks us tomorrow, you're gonna be voting/supporting for the guy screaming "Death to Russia" the loudest.
Youre an idiot.

If Russia comes and takes out our government, and you going to turn pro-Russian?

The posters here cheering the Iran war would gladly go to war with Russia if their greatest ally demanded it


You’ll also see them calling people racist for being alarmed at the demographics at the texas football game

We killed 170 kids and the second most important guy in the Shia world on day one. Most Iranians probably hate us.


My question, which you ignored, is whether he thinks the Iranian people support the Mullahs.

And yet a year ago we were considered Putins stooges because we didn’t support Ukraine. Just like you never cared about Israel until the last year.

Let me guess: you've never met an Iranian; they hate the mullahs. The mullahs have killed more Iranians than we ever will. They killed a girl for wearing her hijab wrong.


I hear people here talking about how much they hate politicians and such in this country.

Best way to change that is to attack them. Then the country unites.

We just freed a woman who murdered her 3 children in cold blood.

Nobody has killed more Iranians than the Mullahs. I’ll ask again since you failed to answer. Do you think the Iranian people support the Mullahs?

This conflict is about China. And it’s hardly even a conflict. I’d love for someone to describe the most recent battle of this “war” in Iran for us all.

You and I have no way of knowing whether 50,000 people, 50 million, or 88 million people support the mullahs or the protestors.

I think 3down10 is right -- all we did was galvanize support against us from sanctions and bombing.

They have turned into the neocon scumbags they once despised.

Can you find any posts by us, hardcore championing for war or do you just want to keep being dramatic calling people you don’t know warmongers?

Do you support the democrats when they are in power?

Does that mean you think Russia should come over, kill them all and then install a puppet that will cater to the needs/demands of Russia?

I hate more about our government than the average citizen and I'd also be like Death to Russia and I'd support fighting them even if it was a democrat or neocon in office.

One day people may start to understand a military victory doesn't mean shite. Winning over the people is the real war and you can't win it by force. We saw that in Iraq and Afghanistan where we spent trillions and 20 years just to replace the Taliban with the Taliban.



Nah, man. Sure, we might have been wrong the other nine times we went to war in the middle east, but this time....this time we got it right. Patriots are in charge.

Every loss of life hurts, but that would be quite a number. About 1,000 Americans have been killed in attacks attributed to Iran or Iran-backed groups since the 1979 Iranian Revolution

Iran is not done yet, but siege warfare is undefeated when you can accomplish it.


I think that number is low.

I've heard US soldiers on various podcast say a lot of the roadside bombs/IEDs that killed US soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan were either supplied directly to the enemy from Iran or the know-how to build the devices was supplied to the enemies from the Iranian military.

I’ll believe it when I see it and gas is back under $3/gallon. Until then, it’s just speculation and wish casting.

More folks murdered in Chicago the last 6 months by gunfire than US war casualties in Middle East.
