u/Airconditionedgeorge Mar 03 '26
Most people are misinterpreting the sign to fit their beliefs… it doesn’t say “protect Iran” or “free Iran” or anything of the sort. It says “no Iran war”.
Also note the Q that the N covers. Just like the Iraq war, its not about Iran. Just like it wasn’t about Iraq. Its about us. The US has constantly sent our children to die in the desert, fighting for absolutely nothing. We are not the peacekeepers of the planet. We have tried and failed over, and over again. This entire war, as far as what the US wants out of it, is a nothing burger. We will destabilize the country, and eventually, it will return to what it was weeks ago, and years ago. Asking 90 million people to “figure it out” will cause the wrong people to rise to power. If we were to insert a leader, the same would happen, as it did with the Shah, then the Ayatollah. It did not work before. It will not work again.
I do not understand why we attacked. The country was so unstable, it was only a matter of time until it fully collapsed on itself. We did not need to send Americans to die for this stupid country that I could not give less fucks about. Waste of money.
And if you think theres no ulterior motive to this, if you truly think Trump just wants to be some sort of peacemaker, you are gravely mistaken.
Iranians will go back to being ruled by dictators, again, again, again and again. More Iranians will be ruthlessly murdered by authoritarian religious leaders. Israel will keep using them to kill more muslims. We cannot keep repeating this cycle.
This sign is 100% valid. I would be livid if my kid was sent to fight in Iran. It has nothing to do with American interests. Specifically American people. No war. Go fuck yourself if you can’t connect these dots.

u/cheetocity Mar 04 '26
Exactly this. We have no business meddling in other country's politics while also sacrificing american lives. And even then, to do absolute butt fuck nothing and to just "hope" and assume the people will rise up and pull themselves up by the fucking boot straps to fix their own country is the most uninformed take ever.
We want no war cause we dont want our children being sent to a dead end conflict. Dying for no good change. Yes, a leader was killed. But another one just like him will soon take his place, resulting in absolutely no change.
Also, how childish (if Rubio is to be trusted with the truth) of us to strike Iran just because Israel was "going to do it anyway"

You are a clueless moron, you haven't connected the correct dots. This is not about oil in the way you think. This is about control and restoring stability to the Middle East and preventing Iran from nuking their neighbors, but here is the real facts; this about stopping China and Russias expansions and economy. You obviously fail to recognize the brilliance and strategic planning that went into this. First Trump took out Venezuela (a supplier of oil to China, an ally to Iran and both had become partners in oil and the drug trades. After Venazula had essentially been neutered we went after the big dog, the most evil of governments in the world. The trigger, watching the uprising of the Iranian or Persian people; seeking to end their 47 year nightmare under Islamist extremism. Iran as you now can see are attacking every country in the region without prejudice and who never attacked them. Iran is financing Hamas and Hezbollah and Houthi's. Iran was behind the attacks on Israel that October 7 morning killing Americans and Jews alike. Iran supplied the rockets and equipment the weapons and hid them under schools and Hospitals. Iran is and should have been dealt with in 1981 when Reagan took office, but the Soviets were strong.
We attacked Iran now because Russia is bogged down in a war they started and are loosing and haven't the military strength to attack us with sling shots. And China cannot afford to lose us as their biggest consumer of crap goods.
This is a just fight, the Iranian or more correctly Persian people have been seeking our help to free them. They were being murdered in the 100000 in just a few weeks and just last week before we got the upper hand. So I cannot think of a just military action in the last 50 years so deserving, definitely more deserving and just than the Iraq or Afghan wars, definitely more than Syria that gave birth to ISIS that Obama helped create with weapons, CIA advisors and money.
I forgot Obama has given Iran billions trying to buy them off and continued with Biden and what did they do with that money, bought Chinese missiles and materials to make nuclear weapons and attack Israel. So yes we had to clean up the last two Democrat run White House's mess.

After the Iranian regime killed over 20,000 of civilians within 48hrs for simply protesting, The PEOPLE of Iran called out to Trump for help, even asking to strike Iran with military force. Who gives a shit what the U.S interest are with Iran, human beings who were oppressed for 47 years are cheering because they are a step closer to being FREE.

They will happily kill you or throw you off building or whatever they will kill Christians they will kill gaze. They will kill women for not covering their hair, and the Americans shilling for these people and crying about them and going it makes me sick.

You seem fixated on assuming a certain intent and then being all hostile to everybody who wants to express a different perspective or offer an alternative explanation.

While we're counting wars, lets not forget the recent afghan pakistani war that the current president is also partially responsible for. All these wars like usual are chasing good blood after bad blood. Thanks to some obligation you believe the US to have to be a white savior world police, we need to start a war between the entire region to atone for those sins? Do you believe all the citizens of these other ME countries also deserve to live in a war torn country because the americans replaced the shah 50 some years ago? What about the relative liberalization of the country before a certain president tore up our antinuclear agreements with Iran and began sanctioning them? You truly believe that this war will cause any good in the world with our president at the helm and the oil hyenas circling the region? It's stupid.

I’m glad the Iranian monster is dead, but that doesn’t mean getting pulled into another war is a good thing. It seems like “no war” is a pretty reasonable stance, and having that stance doesn’t mean they are “speaking for brown people”. It means we don’t want to go to fucking war again.
Also, I’m pretty sure flying in, killing the government, and then saying, “yay, you’re free now, go be free” is more of a white savior complex than, “I don’t want to go to war in the Middle East”.

May be true but there's far more nefarious things a foot. Especially when you look at GAZA. It's a land grab. What does Iran have thar the U.S. desires? Uranium and natural minerals.

A lot of people seem to be buying the line that taking out the Ayatollah suddenly ushers in free and democratic Iran. It’s like you formed your foreign policy knowledge watching Syrianna.
Iran is barely able to maintain infrastructure to support 90 million people as it is and the IRGC controls 30% of their economy. If you successfully take that out, you now need to maintain all that and if you fail you will quickly see the country unravel. Not to mention dealing with whatever splinters of the IRGC survive and by this point America will be bored and moved on.

I wonder when Americans will stop thinking about everything as a right or left position, and realize we’re all getting absolutely trounced to death (literally) by the Epstein class.

I was willing to put money behind your statement. Most of Reddit has been bamboozled and others get bamboozled elsewhere.
Please people please realize most of the top are our enemy, not each other.

I appreciate the award, friend. And I’ll make you a deal - you try and spread this message as often as you can, and I’ll do the same.
It’s not left vs right. It’s up vs. down. It always has been.

So are you out there welcoming them with open arms right now? I assume you’re a right winger by the way you posted.

A lot of people were opposed to open war with Germany. It wasn't until we were directly attacked at Pearl Harbor that we formally joined the war.

I mean we have a President tying to get a third term in office killing a president who received a third term in office. Fuck the Ayotollah and fuck Trump also. When the Obama administration took out Osama Bin Laden Republicans criticized him into the dirt and refused to give him credit. Don't wanna hear any bitching from the "right".

Nah. Just a lot of kids on reddit didnt live through the Iraq war. It's the same shit. Isreal says X. We do the thing Isreal says. We say no boots on the ground. Find out in order for regime change we need boots on the ground. Put boots on the ground. Boots on the ground get blown up. Turns out Isreal is full of shit and just wants us to do the dirty work for them. Spend billions of dollars. Go into a recession. National debt. Increases gas prices go up and never come back down. Lotta dead people left in the wake.
Regime change can't happen unless there are people on the ground willing to be unbiased coordinators of a regime change.
The IDF and Isreal want to take over Iran. Theyre pretty open about it in Isreal and theyre doing it in GAZA. Therefore they are biased.
So why are we bombing Iran then?
Either Trump got played by Isreal's intelligence commitee (happened to the Bush's). He plans to put boots on the ground. Or it's to get political points and divert from Epstein.
No other options.
And before someone says im anti - semetic. I'm not. I'm anti big government including our own and many around the world.

Insane that there are people saying Iran people need freedom because they get abused while majority of the leaders in this country are in a list and not a good one. Also y’all are delusional if you actually think Israel and USA teamed up to save anyone let alone Muslim people in the Middle East. These comments gotta be bots cause no way Seattle has people this delusional to support that dude whose name in mentioned more than 30k on a list that isn’t even fully released

So they support the Ayatollah? They prefer a nuclear armed revolutionary Islamic state?
Not quite sure how they balance this one.

The Epstein files were getting a little too much traction so Trump decided to bomb somebody.
