"Chinese axis".

In many ways I think it would be better than the world controlled by the US axis.

Then again, I am not from the US nor Israel nor any muslim country. I just hope the countries I care about stay out of this Iran deal.

This would allow me to quietly hope that Iran somehow wins this in the long run. I have this tendency of supporting the aggressed party in uneven conflicts.

If you are living in a western country, you are talking out of extreme privilege and zero sense.

Automatically presuming that the weak side is the morally right is such a skewed an naive world view.

  • I presume no such thing. I never implied morality to the Iranian government.

    However, in this case, the US-Israel axis is undoubtedly the agressor, and morally indefensible.

    In the Russian invasion against Ukraine, I can hope Ukraine succeedes without ascribing morality to the Ukrainian government.

    • Even when Iran is funding and arming Hamas, hezbollah, houthis, irqai militias, calls for the destruction of Israel, a trying to build such capability? When is a preemptive strike legitimate?
