the way my Iranian friends have put it as they celebrate the death of the head of the regime and brace themselves for the impact of the new regime is that when you live under opression all your live, you learn to celebrate the small stuff, even as you know what’s coming will also be bad

regardless of regime changes, nothing good comes from American interventions

  in the grand scale absolutely. nothing ever good comes from foreign interventions. a people must be given the tools to liberate themselves rather than have it decided for them what is best

your “iranian friends” are pretty stupid for celebrating a war against themselves.

  There’s already a war against them by their own government that’s killed over 30,000 Iranians since late December. Civilians are being slaughtered either way, but this way means that maybe the Ayatollahs won’t be in power at the end.

  i will not tell them how to think or feel. the old regime killed their families. the new regime will likely finish the job. iran, israel, the united states. none are working or fighting on behalf of the Iranian people. i will help them as they work to survive, but i will not moralize to them that they’re wrong to feel how they feel about things that impact them directly

  especially considering that over 100 schoolgirls were murdered in the process.
  
  if a bomb killed 150 children and also took out Trump, I wouldn’t celebrate it

    The deaths of children will forever prevent america from being a hero here. So we’ve just created a new enemy, likely a more cunning one than the last.

    that’s the point. make sure there are always people who hate America with all their soul. so there’s always a justification for the US to be a military state.
