Does Iran matter?

@WintaTheAngle is it the religion, the leadership, or the people?

@Tastyfrzz I’d say it’s the leadership using religion to manipulate people.

@WintaTheAngle Is it worth war? If Iran can't destroy Israel, why should Israel go to war with it?

@SW-User If they won’t change by peaceful means, yes.

@WintaTheAngle Put that is how a nation with wealth, but little else multplies its power. By funding the causes of its enemies enemies.. The nation is a thorn in the side of peace in the region. Although, not the only one.😷

@WintaTheAngle Do you really think the world needs more war?

@SW-User You’re suggesting Israel should just tolerate being the targets of terrorists groups equipped and financed by Iran?

@WintaTheAngle What has Israel done to remedy this? They take more from Palestinians and they kill more Palestinians. We should not enter global war because Israel cannot change its ways or improve relations with Iran and others.

@WintaTheAngle Iran could say the same. If this is how we are going to approach the world, they could say they need to neutralize Israel for its treatment of Muslims in Palestine and aggression toward them, Iran.

@SW-User How can Iran say the same? Can’t you name the terrorist organisation in Iran targeting Iranian civilians that is funded and trained by Israel?

You can’t because there isn’t one

You’re over simplifying to get past a point you have no answer for.

@WintaTheAngle USA and Israel want Iran to be pro western. Iran are not this way, and they also take exception to treatment of Muslims in Palestine. Israel wants to dominate the Middle East and Iran does not want to play along. Israel is not an innocent party and they are seeking conflict with Iran. Iranians have been subjected to hundreds of attacks in covert operations. They have been assassinated inside their country.

Can you tell me that Israel has sought better relations with Iran? Do you think its conduct is friendly and peaceful? Iran would have no one to help if Israel stopped killing Palestinians.

@SW-User You’ve avoid the point again. If you’re going to keep doing that there’s really no point continuing.

@SW-User You seem to miss an underlying cultural point here. Unlike all the other Arab nations, Iran is different. These people are "Persians" and see themselves as a great and seperate civilization. They were on a western path under the Shah, but after that they became a strong theocracy, and all the while saw themselves as seperate. Now they simply fund local arab resistence in countries in the region, and encourage aggression against any pro western efforts. This Proxy aggression is cheaper and more effective than a front attack, which they will lose. If push comes to shove, Israel will simply remove Iran from the map. But that will require the permission of America to do it. That Israel is being brutal against the Palestinians is not at issue. They surely are. But all this is in response to acts of aggression from withing Palestine, or Lebanon. All using locals as human shields. Its a brutal dirty horrible situation on both sides.. 😷

@SW-User ever the no about "self defense?"
