There is an unwritten, unspoken racial hierarchy in the liberal rules based world order that determines which lives are considered more or less valuable.
To be honest, your behavior reminds me of many unpleasant memories.
It often happens in movies where a group of people kneeling in surrender blame someone who stands up to resist the enemy, believing that this person's resistance has put them in an even worse situation. I know it's unrealistic to expect everyone to stand up against oppression, but you can simply shut your mouth. What right does a cowardly person without courage have to criticize others? Do you think you'll be more comfortable if Iran surrenders? Do you think Iran is preventing you from achieving better living conditions?
The only reason you can still be here today fighting for the scraps the US has given you is because the American noose hasn't been put around your neck yet!
Last year during the trade war, the Singaporean Prime Minister echoed your sentiments, saying things like, "Give the US whatever it wants, don't disrupt the world economy." Listen to that! Is that even humanly uttered?
Who really cares anyway. The main thing is seeing the US and especially Israel being humbled and embarassed for anyone to see and people across the region and the world at large seeing that even today, they're not invincible. They weren't during WW2, not in Korea, not in Vietnam, not in Afghanistan and not in Iran.
Iran is literally asserting supremacy over one of the most important strategic straits on Earth, yet America is supposedly "winning" because it can try to mass poison civilians and destroy some civilian infrastructure?
If that is how someone thinks, then their brain is just as primitive as the people running this policy.
In reality, this is the first time in modern history that American bases anywhere, including the region, have been pounded so hard and so persistently.
The first time that not even their soldiers and CIA operatives are safe, not even in hotels, not even during evacuation.
They had to carry out mass embassy evacuations from one of the most important regions in the world.
They were openly admitting that even their own citizens were not safe there, while at the same time struggling to evacuate them properly because the whole situation was sliding toward breakdown. That is not what winning looks like. That is what strategic collapse looks like.
90% of the members with profiles showing they're from NATO, 5 Eyes nations, or vassal states is particularly prone to hubris. It should be a banneable offense but the mods is probably mostly CIA and NED so it is what it is.
epic fail. Russia & China refused to veto a UNSC resolution that condemns Iran as the sole aggressor without mentioning the fact that Israel and the US were the ones that initiated the attack.
Without condemning Washington and Tel Aviv, the Security Council adopts a resolution calling on Iran to stop its attacks on Arab countries.
In its resolution, the Security Council did not condemn the US and Israeli attacks on Iran.
Specifically, the UN Security Council adopted a draft resolution condemning Iranian attacks on Gulf states and Jordan and demanding their cessation.
Resolution 2817 was adopted by a vote of 13 in favor, with Russia and China abstaining, and no country voting against it.
The Security Council condemned Iran's attacks on residential areas and civilian infrastructure in the Gulf and Jordan, and the resulting casualties and damage, deeming them a violation of international law and a threat to international peace and security.
The Council demanded an immediate end to Iranian attacks on countries in the region.
On February 28, 2016, the United States and Israel began bombing targets in Iran, resulting in damage, civilian casualties, and the deaths of several Iranian officials, including Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei.
