Thanks for answering my original question. You actually do believe that
Over the next few weeks, keep your eyes on the Middle East

research and people that I know who have spent time over there...most residents have positive views and opinions of Americans. It's really not hard to find this information out. And most do not like their regime and prefer American culture and values.
Can you post some of your sources
I was thinking it was because you were a brain-dead propagandist, but I guess you’re right I don’t remember Bob ranting about how “Dah-(godless)-Jooz are bombing the hospitals again.” Maybe I should have called you Tucker Carlson or Rashida Tilaib.
Yes, I believe the Israelis blew up a school. It’s their MO and I’ve seen the videos of it
Oh so you think all criticisms of Israel are criticisms of Jews. What about all the anti Zionist Jews outside of Israel or how the Israeli government treats Orthodox Jews
I think you have shown yourself ITT, and you are gaslighting. I don’t have time for you.
sure let me do your research for you and call my friends that have spent time over there and get some interviews for you...I mean a simple google search, which is typically more liberal than conservative, states
"Yes, many Iranian citizens have a positive view of Americans, often distinguishing between the U.S. government and its people. While political tensions exist, Iranians are generally known for hospitality towards foreign visitors, including Americans. However, views can be complex, influenced by sanctions, history, and a large diaspora in the US.
Key Aspects of Iranian Perspectives:
- Hospitality & Fascination: Iranians are often very welcoming and curious about American culture, food, and people, frequently expressing that the animosity is restricted to governments.
- Government vs. People: Despite state-sponsored anti-American rhetoric (like "Death to America" chants), many ordinary Iranians express friendliness toward Americans, often telling visitors"We are not terrorists".
- Complex Views: While many feel warm towards American people, some polling has indicated high levels of, or growing, distrust toward the U.S. government, particularly in response to sanctions and foreign policy actions.
- Strong Ties: With a massive Iranian diaspora in the US (often referred to as "Tehrangeles"), many citizens have family in America, which fosters familiarity and, in many cases, positive sentiment. "
- Cultural Tradition: Persian culture places a high value on treating guests with great respect, which extends to American tourists.
- Political Factors: While the general public is often friendly, there is, at times, apprehension or, in rare cases, risk for Americans (particularly dual citizens) due to geopolitical tensions, leading to some, albeit less common, cases of detention.
- Different Perspectives: The sentiment is not universal, and attitudes can differ based on generation, political affiliation, and personal experience.
You can also find celebrations when US has held these attacks including some from this attack.Most of them want this regime gone...you can google or find research from people that have been over there. If you don't know anyone, there are documentaries of people that have done research. I'll let you educate yourself. It's not hard to find

I have not seen or heard that any schools that have been attacked in the last 24 hours...I have researched your claim and found nothing. Maybe it is true but I can't find anything

BREAKING — 51 Iranian children are dead after a strike hits Minab girls elementary school in Iran.

no I just don't feel like doing all your research for you...I've studied it and talked to people that have experienced it. Military and non-military. The Americans are liked and respected by most Iranians and would love nothing more than their regime to disappear. If you don't believe this...that is on you. It's not hard to find this information

funny all Iran reports...this one says 2 young girls. None of them collaborate and random sources you've probably never heard of...
Death toll in Israeli strike on southern Iran school rises to 165
Officials reported the death toll from the attack on the Shajareh Tayyebeh girls’ elementary school in Minab.
and using this guy as a source!!

Look I’m just skeptical that bombing them will lead to regime change
Again...I NEVER said it would lead to a regime change...I said...read slowly...that the Iranian people want a regime change. Majority do not support this regime and majority of the educated citizens do not hate the US. That is just a fact.
And I’m saying that I am highly skeptical that the US will be able to do that regime change which, read slowly here, are some of the stated goals of the administration
I agree that the majority want regime change, but the problem is they don’t have the guns to help them in any attempt at an uprising…as evidenced by the thousands of protesters who were brutally murdered by this regime.
yes Trump said he is backing them and it is their chance to act and take back over their country and he would support them.
Will that happen...you nor I know how it will play out but Trump has made it clear that he supports the citizens of Iran and asked them to stay safe as this mission plays out. Regardless of politics, the US is not attacking the Iran citizens...they are attacking the corrupt regime that Iran citizens won't out of power.
yep that is the issue...they have no chance without help to overthrow the regime...that is absolutely correct. It's going to be an interesting few weeks
This is all interesting considering I spent the last week in briefings on the Chinese threat.
Not saying Iran does not have issues. However, I think it’s makes messaging on China muddy.

The honest social news agency reddit ha is reporting it now. The are discussing it on the tMB. Also being discussed if its true we have another Gaza hospital bombing situation.
China is a whole different topic...we became way to reliant on them for manufacturing for way too many years.
That would suck...I've just seen a bunch of conflicting reports on this and no source that seems reputable and the info is all over the board
Asking for clarification. How is the Chinese messaging being muddled? Are you comparing their designs for Taiwan to us attacking the terrorist state of Iran? Not attacking you, just interested. Thanks
the "no new wars" people are about as consistent on this issue as they were on chasing down pedophiles and protecting the constitution (congress was not consulted once again before this latest attack).
I pray for all our troops over there.
I pray for wisdom and guidance for our leaders.
I'm not informed enough to know what's right or wrong here. I think over simplification reductions dont help either side.
Saying 'The Iranian people want x' is untrue, regardless of what X is.
Think about this in terms of what you know best, here.
If a foreign outlet said, 'The American people want Trump out of office'...there are certainly a large faction that do, and a large faction that dont. Its neither a true nor untrue statement.
I also cant help but wonder if this isnt a slight of hand trick. The Epstein files heat getting too close....'Who has time to talk about a dead pedo? We have a war to fight'

They have the video already posted showing it was irans own missile that malfunctioned and fell back down from where it was launched.
I do think the majority of Iranians want some type of change but it's so difficult
to get Intel out of Iran. Our best friend's son is in the Air Force stationed in the Saudi Arabia and what intel they've been able to receive about how the current regime is killing opposition is just horrifying. I also saw just recently that the Jordanians and Egyptians confirmed these reports the last several days .

Damn. Someone just got dunked on.
Seriously though guys, please keep the politics out of this thread and keep it strictly news related discussion only. Political posts will be deleted.
The Enforcer on Twitter is good. He’s about to go live soon.
The same type of accounts also said multiple hospitals and churches being blown up were done by Hamas. I don’t trust them
He thinks Cade is a top 5 Clemson QB ahead of TB10, he ain’t dunking on anyone
