It's sometimes important to remember that as illegal and unnecessary the war against Iran is, Iran is still a shit place for human rights. Donald Trump isn't engaging in this war for the likes of Narges Mohammadi or anything she fought for. He's doing this to distract the press from the rapes, the economy he's tanking and to increase the portfolio of his family and friends.

Doctors have learned long ago that [“first, do no harm.”](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primum_non_nocere) If you don’t know what you are doing, you can make things far worse. Perhaps this should be a rule for international relations. Doctors can’t cure every disease or injury, and foreign relations can’t cure every evil. But you are liable to make things worse if you don’t know what you are doing.

This was has been in the making for over 47 years though. It’s very narrow minded to think it was all a ruse to hide the Epstein files, files that no one was gonna do doodly-Squat about anyway. Epstein files were gonna be just like Panama papers anyway. IMO

How is it unrelated to the epstein files when: There is still no good reason to go to war with Iran. Epstein is linked to Israel and Mossad Israel has been wanting to go to war for 47 years. It also benefits Russia There seems to be a pretty linear correlation with the Epstein files and then causing all sorts of international chaos to distract from them. We legitimately cannot keep up with all of the chaos that is going on, congress have to think about a war, they cannot tackle the files and a global crisis (that they caused) at once. So it's working to the extent of the plan of Israel, and Trump

It’s related to the Epstein files the same way all powerful people are related to the Epstein files. Correlation does not equal causation. Just because they all happen to be pedophiles doesn’t mean this war was because of their pedophelia

It's certainly a good distraction from the Epstein files, but there's a wider network behind Trump, like the Heritage Foundation and accelerationists like Peter Theil. The war fits into their plan for a fascist takeover of the US, is being used to potentially defund medicare, etc, and potentially disrupt the midterms. Also to f*** up the rest of the world's oil market, cash in, and to further isolate the US from allies. It's not just about the Epstein files.

What? The burden of proof is on Trump (and you). What is the reason to go to war with Iran. Every time for the last 2 years when improved peace talks were scheduled, Israel bombed them. We wouldn't be having an oil crisis without the war. *You* prove it, this war is idiotic and none of your allies support it. You seem like a bot for this opinion, otherwise I can't believe you're real

No one is defending the Iranian regime here, but Trumps actions have helped that regime far more than cripple it. More moderate leaders were killed off, the extremists have now been justified, and the anti-American sentiment is only going to grow in the country as American's keep killing their people. Iran was a brutally repressive dictatorship that had mass killed protestors, and even charged families for the bullet used to execute their children, but none of that is likely to change with this war. A US land invasion is likely only going to target coastal regions in an attempt to control the coast and secure the strait, it's not going to press inland to take down the government, unless the US government is willing to take massive casualties. Lets say the US does topple the regime though, that your country is able to take over the whole of Iran and do so with acceptable losses. Then what? Did regime change work in Iraq, or Afghanistan? The same Iranian regime will continue to hold power, or fight until it can resume power because you don't change a government by fighting the whole country head on. Every American action that kills Iranians is widening the pool of recruits for the regime, and growing it's base of support.

I'll condemn them, but fighting a war that is likely to end in a stalemate, kill more civilians than the anti protest movement, destabilize the region creating factional or insurgent violence for the next decade (great for the arms companies though), and destabilize the global economy is not something I will support. And frankly, October 7th isn't my concern, why should my nation be dragged into the squabbles of the Middle East? What is the bigger picture, what is the benefit for my country? Right now this war has done nothing, but cost us, and I do not believe it will change the situation in Iran for the better. Also if the death tolls are what matter here, than why isn't Sudan being invaded? Far more people have been killed there than in Iran or Israel, and the threat to the region from societal breakdown is also far greater than the situation in the Middle East. If the war is determined by morale prerogative, it seems misdirected.

Ok now do the US and its absolute trashing of human rights here? We all know what Iran is whats the point of saying this stuff we all know. Youre just justifying war crimes because "theyre bad guys" meanwhile here a gestapo is violating legal innocent citizens and shooting people in the face and leaving people to die on the streets and literally building concentration camps all over the country. We are kidnapping foreign leaders, we are literally vaporizing fishermen, we are dismantling voting rights, we let 1m people die thru covid and I can go on and on! This isnt about hiding pedophiles this is straight up authoritarian take over of a free country, its about teaming up with the fascist country of Israel to wage war on the fuckin world. US is responsible for killing millions of people around the world, its not hard to find this information but yes Iran is bad, and lastly USA is partially responsible for Iran being where they are now because all we do is Imperialism around the world and people continue to point to everyone but ourselves. Sick of this shit.

Do you really think Jesus would support mass detention centres of immigrants, bombing innocent people "back to the stoneage" and defunding medicaid and medicare? I'm an athiest, but I used to be a Christian and you're deluded if your interpretation of Christ's teaching makes what Trump's doing ok. Trump fits in more with the antichrist.

He kicked each and every single one of his own people out of their land (Israel) for crucifying his son. They had no home. They were not allowed to re-gather into their land until fairly recently (1948.) Happy easter by the way.

It's just a game of "chess" between ths two super powers, historically when one side over strangles their vassals the other side starts faning the flames of revolution... And it goes both aways... that's why there were "soviet" aligned countries rigth in the big A's back yard. It's all a tiresome game where the bulk of the losses and suffering befall on the vassals.

Pale_Sell1122 Apr 3, 2026 -7
Not quite, this is what Fox News says and it's more complex than that. Iran stopped a foreign-backed riot and insurgency on January 8th and 9th. There was two weeks of protests from Bazaaris before January 8th where no protestor was killed. The Bazaris largely went home but things only got violent on January 8th when CIA and Mossad started arming rioters and Reza Pahlavi told them to take over police stations and govt buildings. Israeli channel 14 has admitted to arming rioters. NED and Mike Pompeo have also admitted to agents being involved and logistical support being provided. This is the same pattern of color revolutions we've seen elsewhere in the global south. Even Scott Bessent admitted to deliberately manipulating Iranian currency to spike inflation The goal was to destroy Iran from within to make the war easier. Iran stopped the plan

Yeah, that's just factually inaccurate. There were ~35 people killed by January 6th according to multiple reports. 2000 arrested! Many of who which have been put to death recently and many still facing the death penalty. January 8 marked the regime’s live fire, not the sudden start of foreign armed violence. They were just literally firing live ammunition into crowds. You don't get to 6-15k people slaughtered by just shooting the people with the guns. While the U.S. deliberately exacerbated the currency crisis, Pahlavi encouraged protests, claims of sudden CIA/Mossad arming is nothing more than unverified regime framing. Like of course Pahlavi, Israel, and the US want the Iranian regime to fail, that doesn't make their slaughter of their citizens in the THOUSANDS any less horrific. I don't watch Fox, but you are simply parroting Iranian regime talking points. You need to dig a little deeper on the protests and who were involved/slaughtered. How Iran went about it. This has occurred many times now over the years (1999 Student Protests, 2009 Green Movement, 2017–2018 Economic Protests, 2019 Bloody November, 2022–2023 Mahsa Amini / Woman, Life, Freedom protests), and it always ends in slaughters and lifetime prison sentences. It's a hilarious concept that some can't wrap their mind around Iranian citizens wishing to be done with an immensely oppressive murderous theocratic regime. Iran executes people for homosexuality. It's always funny to see people side with that team.

>Yeah, that's just factually inaccurate. There were ~35 people killed by January 6th according to multiple reports. 2000 arrested! Many of who which have been put to death recently and many still facing the death penalty. Where is your proof that 35 people were killed for protesting? State their exact names. There was only pockets of violence like the one Pahlavist who tried to set cops on fire with a flamethrower, he was arrrested. You are trying to conflate 'protests' with 'riots'. Both happened, but the later phase was riots. >While the U.S. deliberately exacerbated the currency crisis You kind of just slid this in there while making it seem like it's trivial. The US wanted to engineer this event in January just like it has with other color revolutions. The current war was already planned since last year and the events of January were meant to serve as the pretext for the war >Pahlavi encouraged protests False, he encouraged riots. That makes no sense because, protests were already organically happening through the bazaaris as a result of the inflation spike. All of the casualties on Jan 8th/9th happened near police stations, you conveniently like to gloss over this. >claims of sudden CIA/Mossad arming is nothing more than unverified regime framing. False, Israeli channel 14 has admitted to it. NED has also admitted to supplying starlink terminals (of which 40,000 were found in Iran). >It's a hilarious concept that some can't wrap their mind around Iranian citizens wishing to be done with an immensely oppressive murderous theocratic regime It's more hilarious when people who know nothing about Iran try to desperately manufacture consent for 92 million Iranians to justify an illegal war to destroy Iran. Does it look like Iranians are being liberated right now? You don't care about Iranians, you just want to use them as political weapons. Before you continue to infantilize Iranians with this phony saviour complex BS, just look at videos of Iranians on the streets right now. Millions of Iranians take to the streets every night to rally behind their country because they all are against this illegal war that people like you support > You don't get to 6-15k people slaughtered by just shooting the people with the guns. These numbers have never been validated. If you have proof, post the names.

"According to HRANA, the news agency of the Human Rights Activists in Iran, during the first ten days of nationwide protests, through to 6 January inclusive, at least 34 protesters were killed, and at least 2,076 citizens arrested in at least 285 locations.[38] On 7 January, 13 protesters were killed, bringing the total to 45, per Iran Human Rights. “We then gathered in front of a government building. That was when the forces opened fire on us. It felt as if they were shooting at enemies or armed groups. I felt like I was in a war zone. I saw several people injured, and I believe some were killed on the spot. We tried to take the wounded to hospitals and prevent government forces from arresting injured protesters,” the witness said. Human rights groups reported late Saturday and Sunday night that the security forces had raided and attacked the Khomeini hospital in the city of Ilam, western Iran, where injured protesters had been taken. Awyar Shekhi from Hengaw, said: “State forces are firing directly at gatherings and protests without regard for whether those targeted are children or adults. The crackdowns are brutal: teargas and military-grade weapons are being used, and detainees are severely beaten before being transferred to undisclosed locations.” Another witness from Qom said the security forces could see there were teenagers and children among the protesters, “but that didn’t stop them from firing pellets, teargas and gunfire. The whole situation is only getting more deadly.” https://www.theguardian.com/global-development/2026/jan/05/children-killed-iran-protests-security-forces 1. You have no idea where shootings happened. The data on this isn't verified in the slightest. You think you have that all plotted out? Ridiculous. 2. Who cares WHERE it occurred? Yeah. The Basj were one of the forces that did the slaughtering, so it would make sense things occurred near their bases. One right wing reporter mentioning on Israeli channel 14 is NOT an official Israeli government admission. That ONE reporter mentioned “foreign actors” were arming Iranian protesters with live firearms, causing security force deaths. He added that “everyone is free to guess who is behind it.” This was an unsourced hint from a right-wing channel, not an official Israeli government admission, or any deep dive. Iranian officials seized on it as “proof,” but no evidence confirms direct Israeli arming, and certainly nothing proven this was a driving force of protestors being slaughtered. Again, slaughtering protestors is a DECADES old tradition in Iran, but I know I know, it's all the Jew's fault. NED president mentioned supporting the deployment of about 200 Starlink devices during a February 2026 congressional hearing (before being interrupted). This is far from “admitting to supplying” tens of thousands. Also, why you think this is a defense to an Iranian slaughter is beyond my comprehension? The Iranian regime often causes internet blackouts to prevent their atrocities from leaking out. As for validation of numbers, the Iranian government has themselves acknowledged 3,117 killed! How stupid can you be? Even if you take the murderous theocratic misogynist homophobic regime at their word, which you have proven you like to do, that's still a MASSACRE.
