Do you know why 1979 happened? Never heard of Mossadegh or operation Ajax?

Ah so you’re one of these people who cries racism at anyone who has something critical to say about the benevolent and universally loved world leader, Netanyahu.



Do a search of Jews and my username and you will see I have been critical of Jews crying racism when they aren't a race for years now. I get hate for it here quite often.

I also despise the word 'antisemitism' for many reasons

I am the last person you should accuse of being a Jew defender

Not to mention it's not like we haven't attacked Iran in between 1979 and now. We backed Iraq in a war against Iran and looked the other way when they used chemical weapons against them.

Can't figure out why they might not like us. It must be our freedoms.

The world's only global superpower. Why do you have an issue with that?

It has kept the world in check since the end of WWII and we shouldn't want it any other way.

That being said...it's pretty silly to then pull the "it's the jooos" card when someone brings up Netanyahu...oh and the fact that Israel is in fact directly fricking involved in the war as you can see with your own 2 eyes.

I don't know why you even brought out that response but it was stupid. We all have our moments. That one was beneath you.

I’d like to hear it, pray tell. I’m curious to see how it matches up with the 150 other lessons taught on the topic here already. I’m sure yours will be the one that rises above all the others though.

I am pointing out that we have our own reasons for bombing Iran. It's not only/purely because of influence from Israel and people who keep saying such look silly

Why not. Death by dive believes they were going to give up their material and not enrich above 3 % because the promised Obama in exchange for pallets of cash that they wouldn’t.

There was regular oversight & there were more terms than just capping enrichment at 3%. Also “in exchange for pallets of cash”?

You can’t even get your catch phrases straight. Iran received no money from JCPOA, the agreement was we would no longer sanction them.

The “pallets of cash thing” was $400M related to a settlement & frozen funds + had to do with 1979 not JCPOA.

CIA and U.K. engineered a coup to overthrow democratically elected parliamentary PM & reinstall dictatorship of the Shah. Directly lead to the revolution.

Just look up operation Ajax & Iranian revolution.

So perhaps I should ask, what was your original point when you first made mention of this? Talking about just a couple few posts ago.

I know. And the pallets of cash Biden allowed to be released to them weeks before they funded Oct 7 was because they were lying about complying with Biden's bullshite re-instatement of the treaty and came from oil they had sold . When they were breaking that as well by accumulating the material for 11 weapons.

After they funded Oct 7 guys like you wanted to talk about what the money Biden freed up was for. You made a big deal about how they had pinky promised to use that for humanitarian issues. You pretended you didn't know what the term "fungible" meant.

It's not like we haven't been around this block with weak kneed Iran apoliogists like you before

Fair enough. It's also fair to point out that they are in fact involved.

What do you think "our own reasons" are though? I can think of a few different angles but I'd like to know what you personally think.

Are they though? I think they would accept it as a transitory band aid to oust the current regime but it's not a long term solution.

Distinction without a difference. The Iranian people see this as a liberation and there is a large presence wanting the man to take over. It doesn't really matter if they mean for life or for a couple years.

It was a response to someone saying “this all started in 1979”. I just said “do you know why 1979 happened?” & you asked for elaboration.
