Let's not defend evil just because another evil bonked it on the head, shall we?
Funny euphemism for starting a war of aggression and bombing an elementary school on day one. They "bonked" about 180 schoolgirls between the ages of 7 and 12.
I don't follow. What? When you see two evil dudes fight do you start rooting for the one that got punched first just because they got punched first?
I will explain my position starting from the broader picture and then going further into specifics.
Therefore, Iran is by a wide margin the most just belligerent in this war, and your equivocating them with the United States and Israel is basically like equivocating the WW2 allies (who were no angels, remember - the US had segregation, the British starved millions of Indians) with Nazi Germany.
Your snide reddit-style comment - "le heckin authoritarians are bonkin' each other!" - is in extremely bad taste given the crimes against humanity that are being committed daily, and is indicative of a chauvinist worldview that speaks very poorly to your character.
You must be living under a rock if you think Iran hasn't been stirring shit for decades. It's an awful theocratic dictatorship that has done nothing but spread misery and horror in it's wake.
I'd agree with you that US fucked everyone really bad here and is absolutely immoral and wrong in this part of the conflict but Iran is really really fucking bad too and has been for decades.
It's more of a theocratic quasi-democracy. As for stirring shit, that's the good thing they've been doing. The bad thing is the stuff with gays and women, but supporting resistance against the US and Israel is an unambiguously good thing
