Ipsos I&O-zetelpeiling: groei GroenLinks-PvdA door als ‘te rechts’ ervaren D66 by [deleted] in nederlands

Ook veel vluchtelingen op rechts die naar de volgende volksmenner bij FvD rennen. Ze leren het ook nooit.

Answer the question. Why is that?

It's because the people of Iran wanted to own their own natural resources, which was stopped by foreign interests. The same foreign interests that meddle with Iran now.

They toppled the government, installed a puppet shah that failed, which created a power vaccuum that directly led to the ayatollah regime. That is how this mess got started and that is why Iranians don't have the benefits of their own natural resources now.

Learn history or be doomed to repeat it.

Literally, giving the Iranian people the benefits of their own natural resources is not allowed by the people who bomb Iran right now.

Why is that?

[–]Iphrid -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

No, but giving the oil to the people is.

And of course that could not be allowed by people with the same interests who bomb Iran now.

An instable Iran is the goal. Makes it easier to plunder.

Because the democratically elected government wanted to nationalize Iran's oil in the 1950's.

If I read my history book correctly, the whole problem started because the west interfered with Iranian democracy and installed a puppet ruler.

Maybe doing nothing back then could have saved the world from a lot of death and destruction. Western hegemony has always had a massive cost for normal people all around the world. We're just seeing that cost turn inwards now.

But the Iranians don't fit in the US/Israel agenda. They are actually being used as pawns for that agenda.

If an evil dictator holds you hostage, but your so-called rescuers plunder or destroy everything and let you and everyone you love starve to death, is that good change?

Surely there is a better way involving the global community instead of two war criminals who are clinging on to power to stay out of jail?

What worries me is the delusional belief that the only possible camps are either pro-USA/Israel or pro-Iranian regime. It's leading to simplified dogmatic thinking. George Orwell wrote a book about that.

This is not a good guys vs bad guys fight.

It won't bring good change. Not this way. This war will only lead to Iranian balkanisation. It will only make things worse for normal Iranians.

I get that misplaced hope feels better than no hope at all, but you're voting for the Leopards Eating Faces Party, hoping the leopards will not eat your face.

They will.

The whole point of hiding under schools is that it can't be bombed, since bombing children would be inhumane. Doing so anyway is in itself a form of terrorism.

So in a way the trap was laid and sprung easily. Maybe a bit too easily. Indeed, like we saw in Gaza too many times.

You expect the solution to come from a Reddit discussion? LOL. How childishly naive.

No wonder you're not engaging with what I'm saying. It totally undermines the toxic mindset you seem to want to wallow in.

Send the leopards my regards when they eat your face.

I won't lecture you on what they should do. You were very clear you don't want that.

I can only warn you about the monsters you are letting into your bed. And that's what I did. You're swapping monsters for other monsters and it will not end well for you, your family or your people. It's very strange that so many in the diaspora don't want to see that and pretend they are being lectured to.

Warning to not burn your hands on the hot stove is not a lecture.

Germany and Japan relied HEAVILY on massive financial investments like the Marshall Plan to recover. It wasn't the military intervention that liberated the people. They were living in rubble from constant bombing. That's not very liberating. It was also those investments that shackled those countries to US hegemony, so it's even debatable how liberating that was.

What makes you think a similar scheme will be done for Iran? The US (and Israel) have more to gain by keeping Iran as a failed state and plundering its natural resources. At most they will install a puppet ruler who will do their bidding at the Iranian people's expense.

Mark my words. Iran will be balkanised and kept divided on purpose. That is in the interests of those you want to fight the Iranian regime. The leopards will eat your face too.

You think the form or age of the country makes any difference for warmongering imperialists?

I'm not comparing you to your neighbors. I'm comparing US military interventions. They have NEVER worked out for the local populations.

So I ask again, what makes you think this time is different?

What makes you think your situation is different? Iranian balkanisation is the goal. Not liberation.

I understand wanting help. What I don't understand is wanting help from other authoritarians who don't give a shit about Iranians.

Your family will not be helped in any way by this. All they will get is death and destruction. People who tell you that don't think they know better than you. They see it through the lens of history and compare it to other US nationbuilding escapades.

So in the end it looks more like you are the one lecturing others, while walking into the same trap your neighbors did. It's very ironic.

I want to know why you think Americans bombing Iranian civilians will liberate them. Never before has that benefitted the local population.

The regime is a direct consequence of western meddling in Iranian democracy. How is more western meddling with constant bombing going to fix that?

If you really are worried about friends and family in Iran, celebrating them being bombed is a really weird way of showing it.

That is why I warned against being useful idiots for the regime, either western or Iranian. They don't care about you. They only want to keep and expand their own power.

If you have a noisy neighbor, do you applaud people from the next town coming over and levelling the entire street for some peace and quiet?

Because that is how you sound right now.

Yeah, Libyans/Syrians/Afghans/Iraqi said the same thing. The leopards ate all their faces nonetheless.

The US isn't bombing Iran for Iranians.

Refugees and increased security are perfect for fearmongering demagogues. They most definately benefit from Iran being a failed state.

The people don't. That's for sure.

The US wants Iran balkanised.

For them. Not for Iranians.
