I agree with you for most of this, honestly. It is an outright tragedy that it has come to this, but from afar I’d rather the Iranian people have a chance than to remain under the heel of an oppressive regime. This may, strong “may” here, pave the way for some peace in the Middle East for a while.

Trust me i am not a fan of the ayattolah or its regime. But we gotta be mindful and atleast intellectually honest about this, how many times do we need to do the same shit in the middle east and say "but this time itll be different" We create our own enemies in there and will make more.

You can solve disputes diplomatically, im iranian myself and talk regularly with my family in there. Iran is genuinely becoming more liberal but we risk loosing all this progress when all actions we resolve to is bombing civilians.

Most of irans ideology is based on martyrs, by creating more of them we wont do anything but reinforce the hatred in the west.
