I can't speak for everyone regarding paranoia. I can say with certainty that we did not shoot down passenger planes afterwards.
You just blew up schools and hospitals, weddings, funerals etc and killed over a million people in Iraq and invaded Afghanistan and supported Al Qaeda in Syria and Libya.... no big deal eh....
I think you're confusing 45 with 44 and 43. Trump is guilty of Solemani (which his country is grateful for), and only after 600+ US citizens were killed and several acts of war for the last year. And several bombings in Syria... Again, we will remain at an impasse because we both rely on intelligence from opposite leaning news sites.
Doesn't matter who the President is, they'd all would have been found guilty at Nuremberg. B.S. most people in Iran are against the murder as are people in the US. Any evidence for your b.s. claims? You rely on b.s.

You're in the region against US interests cause of Israel. The fake intelligence on Soleimani came from Israel like the fake intelligence before Iraq. Because of Israel you are supporting Al Qaeda. Nice going.

The US is going to do well regardless. I can't see any difference in Obama giving away the farm to the whole world. At least supporting an ally has some honor. Again, I don't believe you John. You hate Israel, so anything you say about them should be suspect.

Like hell, John. Nobody is stealing Irani/Iraqi business and absorbing their money. No one is rounding up Arabs and gassing them, or forcing them to work till they drop with no food, unless they do that to each other. If your government takes ships, attacks embassies, they might get blown up.
The Jews weren't doing anything to Europeans except existing and working... the Germans came up with some harebrained idea that they needed to be gone. And Hitler convinced much of Europe to cooperate. Your Nuremburg reference is stupid, I hope you know just how stupid.

It is unnaceptable for WWIII to nearly kick off over speculation. The fake intelligence came from Israel. Imagine my lack of shock
Says you. There will be no WW3, that's your speculation. There is no near WW3, there's just Iran shooting down a passenger plan because they are trigger happy and paranoid. Paranoia happens when you're an as*hole to even your own citizens.
I wouldn't be so smug. No one intends it but Iran and Syria especially have formed alliances with Russia, and to a smaller degree China. If the US goes on a bombing spree in either country and hits Russians they could be under pressure in their own country to respond. Things can soon spiral out of control. And no, that'd be cause the US killed Iran's top military man and has them under brutal sanctions and pulled out of the nuclear deal. All for Israel who used a passenger airline as cover for fighter jets which could have led to it being shot down by Syrian defences. Paranoia happens when you have the US and Israel foaming at the mouth to destroy the country and remove your government and when they have done it to others around you in the region and you know you're on the same list as those others. Anyone who thinks 'meh derp regime Iranian people derp' needs a serious reality check or better still get away from issues they know nothing about.
If I was in Israel,
I'd be pissing myself at the idea of Iran having nuclear weapons,
A country that openly advocates the elimination of Israel.
I don't plan to go there any time soon.
I.E. Never.

Why are you surprised that Godwin's law is coming into play on this topic? I can see the surprise if the main topic of discussion was how to make ice cream flavored pancakes and Godwin's law came into play, but why are you surprised about it in a topic about the middle East?

It's always especially nice when someone who detests Israel ( an endeavor undertaken so that something like the Holocaust could never happen again ) throws it out there.

The oligarchs will still be in control and joe ave will end up with less personal freedom and much higher taxes.

Na. It is hurting business and jobs. Doesn't mean Obama was good. Obama increased your taxes to go to Israel and supported the head chopping Saudi ally. Plenty of the information I have learned comes from Israelis and/or Jews so your point isn't valid.

The US did Iranian assets and money and out brutal sanctions on them that won't help the tens of thousands of Jews in Iran. And that's exactly what the US did in Iraq, stole money, blew everything up, gave them ISIS and killed over 1 million people. Everything was a reaction to US aggression and illegal occupation.
I was talking about wars of aggression. Nicely explained by a Zionist Jewish guy.

I know he's been banned from the country that is meant to be a safe haven for Jews lol. I've listened to a lot of Chomsky. He's said he's a Zionist and his views haven't changed but that Zionism has changed. He stayed in Israel when he was younger and lived in a Kibbutz.

Indeed. He would have to pose a real threat to national security to be refused entry. It is a sanction that is not imposed lightly.

Lol. Na, it's because he has documented and articulated Israel's crimes. Norman Finkelstein the same. Both sides of Finkelstein's family were exterminated by the Nazis, his parents were both in Nazi concentration camps and were part of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising. But he is banned from Israel too and one of Israel's chief supporters Alan Dershowitz called Finkelstein's mother a Nazi collaborator. That's sick.
