I'd urge everyone to look about and get informed. Today I've found out that the crazed people who want regime change don't even mention the people of the country for real. Just have a listen at what they say.

Jon Stewart here is joined with Ben Rhodes, co-host of "Pod Save the World" and former Deputy National Security Advisor, and Christiane Amanpour, CNN's Chief International Anchor and host of "Christiane and The Ex Files with Jamie Rubin." Together, they trace the complex history that brought us to this moment, examine Trump's response to the escalation, and explore why achieving peace remains far more challenging than waging war:

I stand for peace and for Life. I do not support any attacks on Iran or Gaza or Syria or Lebanon or the West Bank or Iraq or..... Ever notice the one thing all these wars have in common? A wise friend of mine once opined that the more fights you are involved in the more likely it is that you are the one in the wrong.

@RunTheJulz Except you are all in favour of them because they are just part of our human nature and providing arms to combatants is no different that giving food to the hungry.

@hippyjoe1955 you have an exceptionally large cognitive dissonance. Congratulations. Life must be difficult when accuracy isn’t your strong suit…
Stop trying to make assumptions based on your misperceptions about me and you just might learn something. Or not. I don’t think you can actually get the gist of anything that I’ve said.

The difference between now and 1979 is there's no obvious successor to the mullahs. The revolution was a coalition between Islamists, Marxists, and other groups. The Islamists stabbed the others in the back and took over, and have been effective at crushing any opposition since then. People may want regime change but that's not enough.

And no, the US should not be involved beyond what we're doing already.

@LeopoldBloom Right on that, but don't forget the minorities inside Iran either. Even the death penality there is in majority targetted on them

@val70 @LeopoldBloom Reza Pahlavi, Crown Prince of Iran is the man with the plan. Or actually he is the planned man that the CIA have in mind for a regime change.

@RunTheJulz Good luck with that failure!

Israel should fight it out. The USA needs to wait only eight days to the end of the IDF. Then Palestine can be free.

Iran will only meet US for talks if Israel stops striking it, officials told European counterparts

Iran is standing strong. I think it's fair to say, if the U.S. wants to talk, they should first call off their yard dog.

@KingofBones1 sadly you are correct. Mutually assured destruction means nothing to extreme fanatics.

KingofBones1 · 46-50, M

@3Dogmatic exactly it does not because they are Martyrs in their eyes if the world Burns

@MayorOfCrushtown

If Iran and Israel want to bomb each other to the stone ages, so be it. the U.S. should stay out of it.

But wars offer so many benefits and opportunities. When have you ever seen the US military sit back and not get involved in a conflict. Facts are facts this is just how the decks are stacked…
