Look up the “Twelvers”. They believe that when the world is awash in blood, the 12th Iman will return and everyone will convert to Islam.

I lived in Teheran in 78/79

The Ayatollahs Khomeini are tyrants. They won’t stop until someone kills them . The men don’t have to wear these Hijabs in the Intense heat of Iran and ladies ; women are fully clothed underneath them. Men in Iran have a tendency to touch women inappropriately in public . Zero respect. My wife pretended to have a knife in back pocket because of their touching. I could be arrested for protecting my wife but my wife could cold them.

It is perplexing that given Iran's terrible human right's abuses that Liberals and Leftists still hold out that the Nuclear Deal is a good way to moderate the regime. I think Erick is spot on his previous articles on the subject that they see supporting Iran as a means of splitting the US's relationship with Saudi Arabia and moving the US away from fossil fuels. In short, a belief in a secular, environmental eschatology has lead to a lack of awareness at any of the collateral for pursuing such policies. Left-wing support for Iran is thinly veiled religious zealotry.

If Jimmy carter had supported the Shaw rather than allow the ransacking Ayatollahs Khomeini to come back from exile, it would have changed history for IRAN. God allowed JC and HBO (HBO lifted all sanctions and fully funded Iran) to change the history and direction of the middle east. Second Fulfillments of Zechariah Chaps 9-12 and Isaiah 17: 1, Isaiah 18:1 coming soon. Selah

We have a hard time distinguishing the Iranian people from their government in the same way the rest of the world often has difficulty distinguishing the American people from our government.

Which is the real tragedy of this country, because we the people are supposed to be the government.

I love my country. The flaw in our government is that our foreign policy changes every 4 or 8 years

when we get a new President. I don't claim to know the answer to this problem. We still have the best government in the world.

I was in Dubai on a layover in 1967. When we were at restaurants, the women were in the back behind curtains while just the men were at tables in the front. Our flight attendants ate at the hotel where they still had to eat like that but it was in and out for them. It was the only time I did that flight but it was some experience. The women were totally in head dress except their eyes.

"Don't make me send a plane-load of cash over there!" - Joe Biden

Joe Biden speaking up for the people in Iran would be as impactful and eloquent as John Fetterman reciting Shakespeare.

The same Obama people are pulling the strings behind the scenes. Others are telling Biden he's the foreign policy master of our time behind the scenes as well reinforcing the delusions.

I highly doubt it. Maybe some of the Orange Man Bad crowd has learned something, but the left is going to double down on their garbage, the Republicans will win to some degree in November, there will be those on the Republican side who will betray and just be stupid, and then 2024 will be up for grabs.

If there is one thing American Democrats love is a Dictator- particularly ones that hate Israel.

If it's not in the B Hussein term 3 playbook, it won't see the light of day.

If only never Trumper’s could see the light. But they are too steeped in hate. If it weren’t for them Trump would have been able to continue doing all the great things he was moving in the right direction. The fact that his name doesn’t even come up in the article really says it all. Never Trump hypocrisy is more troubling than liberal hypocrisy. It’s hard to say which has done the most damage to our country.

Biden won’t do any of what you recommend Erick. Just another reason to dislike the man.
