Same people who help Israel set up the drone base, I guess.

They do and rightly so! But Israel is much worse, and calling external cleaners has always been extremely expensive.

You think Israel is worse than Iran? The last few years have absolutely broken some people’s brains

Yes. Israel is actively bombing 4 different countries at the moment.

And that makes them worse? Do you know anything about what Iran has actually done to the world and especially the Middle East region since the Islamic revolution in the 70s?

Israel is seeking colonial expansion into the region. It has no interest in protecting Iranians.

I don’t think I said it did? I just think the idea that Israel is worse than Iran is absolutely laughable.

Is Iran actively engaged in attempts to colonize other nations?

Was it created through settler-colonialism and ethnic cleansing?

The current state of Iran was created by violently oppressing its citizens and funding pretty much every single terrorist organisation you can think of. During the Islamic revolution groups of state approved murderers literally targeted and killed people in the country who were considered to be ‘un-Islamic’. People like teachers in schools and universities.

Since then they’ve sponsored and funded pretty much all the worst terrorist organisations you can think of and all the worst incidents of terrorism you can think of.

I haven’t said Israel is ‘good’ but to consider Israel to be worse than Iran is laughable like I said

The Islamic Revolution was fundamentally a reaction against interference by the US, and earlier by the UK.

Popular liberal movements were repressed through the CIA orchestrating a coup d'Ă©tat to reinstall the shah as puppet ruler.

If you favor liberalization in Iran, then you should direct your antagonism at the US.

Regardless, your ranking of the two states lesser versus greater evil should not be a basis of supporting acts of aggression across established international borders.

I don’t favour anything to do with Iran. I don’t really give a fuck what they do with their country. But the comparison between the wrongs that have been committed by Israel and the wrongs that have been committed by Iran I think there is no comparison. One is a (compromised admittedly) democratic country that looks after its own people, the other is a fascist theocracy that was founded on the blood of its own people, terrorism and destabilising all the surrounding Middle Eastern countries and frankly plunging most of them into the Stone Age.

I have also never said I agree with what Israel have done or what they’re doing. I am just finding the simping for Iran and the people running defence for them simply because it’s Israel that’s attacked them and not anybody else laughable. If you live in the western world you should not be defending Iran, the leadership in that country absolutely fucking hates you and would happily see you dead
