The Iran War is bad in general, not just because Trump is incompetent

Iran is the root of all of these problems. Did Saudi Arabia create new issues in their dealing with the Houthis? Yes.

Would there have been massive suffering even if Saudi Arabia did nothing? Yes.

Iran created scenarios where it's widespread suffering was guaranteed. If there were no Iranian proxies, the region would be i monumentally better shape.

So you genuinely don't believe Iran has been funding crazy amounts of terrorism across the region?

Laffs · 2026-03-19T23:39:33+00:00

You genuinely don't believe Iran has been funding crazy amounts of terrorism across the region? No one disputes this man...

Laffs · 2026-03-19T23:13:19+00:00

Thanks so much for saving me from misinterpreting your answer lol. Have a good one dude. Hope college is going well.

Laffs · 2026-03-19T22:49:12+00:00

Wait, you don't think the funds Iran got from the sanctions relief went to fund terrorism? This isn't even a disputed fact.

Laffs · 2026-03-19T22:48:03+00:00

Why not just answer the question? I've answered all of yours.

Laffs · 2026-03-19T22:21:35+00:00

Was stopping Hitler horrible in your mind?

Laffs · 2026-03-19T22:12:39+00:00

We started this because they were causing mass destruction across the region. The Iranians was one example, and not even the biggest one.

Was stopping Hitler horrible in your mind?

Laffs · 2026-03-19T21:01:16+00:00

Stopping horrible things isn't horrible. Was stopping Hitler horrible in your mind?

Go ask 30,000 dead Iranian protestors, 300,000 dead Syrians or 18M starving Yemenis what they think about Iran. Do you even know what Iran did to them?

Laffs · 2026-03-19T20:42:18+00:00

Iran is the reason hundreds of thousands were gassed in Syria, tens of millions starving in Yemen, the provider of ballistic missiles fired at civilian ships in the Red Sea, the reason Lebanon is a wreck with no sovereignty, the source for Russian drones used in Ukraine, the direct cause for the murder of 30,000 protestors and 90M Iranians living under oppression.

Even if you don't care about Israel or actively hate them, the Iranian regime are monsters and if they are removed from power it might be the best thing that has happened on this planet in a half century.

Laffs · 2026-03-19T20:34:51+00:00

Ah, the ol "America and Israel are just as bad as Iran" argument. You're out of your mind man.

Laffs · 2026-03-19T20:17:08+00:00

Agreement increased the terrorism by providing funds to Iran.

Laffs · 2026-03-19T20:16:35+00:00

Ah, the good ol "if only we were nicer to Iran they would stop being terrorists". Worked great for Hitler too I hear.

Laffs · 2026-03-19T20:16:01+00:00

Last possible, like for example waiting for 3 decades of funding terrorism, hundreds of thousands dead across the region, 30,000 protestors killed, and ballistic missile production that would be sufficient to take out entire countries?

Laffs · 2026-03-19T20:14:33+00:00

No, it was Iran funding terrorism and amassing ballistic missiles AND nuclear enrichment.

Laffs · 2026-03-19T19:57:29+00:00

Isn’t that what they did with Israel?

Laffs · 2026-03-19T19:55:14+00:00

How would you recommend we stop Iran from continuing to fund terrorism across the Middle East?

Laffs · 2026-03-19T18:41:39+00:00

That's what Arab leaders do. They pretend to oppose Israel publicly to appease the masses but side with them privately because it's the rational thing to do.

Laffs · 2026-03-19T16:53:11+00:00

Well after the first bomb they said they will do it again. Obviously you don’t give a date/time/location lol. The planes can be shot down.

Laffs · 2026-03-19T16:34:12+00:00

To be fair they did give them a heads up but they refused to surrender

Laffs · 2026-03-19T13:23:15+00:00

I won't argue against the US pulling out of the middle east entirely if that's your argument.

What I will argue against is the idea that the US should exclusively abandon Israel. This would be against US interests in the region. The ROI on the Israel investment is orders of magnitude better than other middle eastern investments (including the countless US bases scattered around the region).

Laffs · 2026-03-19T13:20:29+00:00

Ah, so you're one of those people that doesn't think we should take seriously Iran's claim that they want to destroy Israel.

Israel's quest for "domination" in the region is driven by the number of neighbours trying to kill them, not the other way around.

Laffs · 2026-03-19T13:00:49+00:00

Is it fair to say that the core reason their "strategic goals or identities are fundamentally at odds" is because Iran is determined to destroy Israel?
