| This is a stupid argument. It’s chaos theory. Iran receives support from Russia and China. Did Russia and China attack Israel? No, they didn’t and neither did Iran. Most of the weapons used by Mexican drug cartels come directly from the US. That does not mean the US supports the actions of the drug cartels. |

| > This is a stupid argument Every time I try to talk to someone online and they start with "you are/your arguments are stupid", that says more about the person saying it than anything else. I won't continue. |

| ▲ | austin-cheney 2 hours ago | parent [-] | | Yes, when I see ignorant people string together hyperbolic word salad far deviated from any fact I get to call it stupid, especially when that stupidity likely qualifies sending me to an unnecessary war while they hide behind their computer, like cowards, getting their news from TikTok. | | |

| Indeed the US does not support the drug cartels, Iran does support Hezbollah. They are different. Wikipedia: > Hezbollah's 1985 manifesto outlined its key objectives, which include expelling Western influence from the region, destroying Israel, pledging allegiance to Iran's supreme leader... |

| ▲ | austin-cheney 4 hours ago | parent [-] | | What does that have to do with Israel bombing Iran right now? I just see people performing absurd mental gymnastics to invent unfounded qualifications for going to war. | | |
| ▲ | tim333 2 hours ago | parent [-] | | Iran has declared it wants Israel destroyed, attacked it via it's proxies and been working on making weapons grade uranium. Israel not wanting to be destroyed or nuked has arranged to attack Iran's nuke facilities. Is it that complicated? | | |
| ▲ | austin-cheney 2 hours ago | parent [-] | | Yes, it is complicated. Israel says the same things and now its primary proxy just bombed Iran. Iran did not initiate these attacks. Israel did. Iran does not have nuclear weapons and is years away from having them, but Israel has them. When you peel back the baseless rhetoric this issue is completely one sided. |
