The US was one of the reasons why the current Iranian regime was able to take power. Iran was on its way to being free from the west and kicking out western oil companies in the 50s until a coup brought in a US friendly PM, who was toppled by anti US regime. It’s like a never ending circle of creating our own worst enemies.

Low key my tin foil hate opinion is I think Iran is one of them “they are our enemies and we want to destroy them” - “but not really because we like them being useless” like how we really don’t want to defeat Russia.

We don’t want a competent government running Iran because means another competitor. Where the wealthy Arab states are really just Arab slave societies where the elite sell resources to keep the west economies afloat - and that’s all they ever will be - Iran has the potential to be a world power.

Highly educated, diverse and liberal minded populace. Proud history of state building, an ancient history. A lot like China actually.

It’s why we’ve never really tried to oust the Ayatollah but just keep him bottled up in his country. A free Iran advanced is dangerous to the world order and wouldn’t get their asses kicked Israel all the time

Facts, if this turns into another Mossadeq situation (his overthrow and the Shah’s oppression are a big reason the Islamic republic came to being) then the West might have to think about it this time. Unless they want another Islamic regime.

Would be such a hilarious troll move by China if they supported a leftist revolution in Iran. :skip:

Wasn’t the original Iranian Revolution leftist that was co-opted by the Mullahs?

Leftist? Iran is a conservative country, why dafuq would the revolution be lefitist?

Americans legit think all "revolutions" are liberal-democratic (because of the American Revolution) or "leftist" (because of the French Revolution) but that isn't how that shyt works in reality.
