AaronWhy are other national leaders supporting Trump's unilateral decision to instigate a war in Iran? Do they not see that it's illegal, immoral, and motivated entirely as a means to distract from Epstein? Why would they support this? Are they implicated, too?
André Polykanine@hosford42 And killing 30,000 protesters inside Iran was not immoral, no? I'm by far not a trumpist, Trump is a narcissic idiot and all those obvious things, but… Khamenei must fall because he's killing his own people by thousands, and it's only one of the reasons.
@menelion It was an atrocity, and Khamenei should be held accountable for his crimes just as Trump should. But that doesn't justify what Trump is doing. (Khamenei and Trump won't be among those who will be dying on the front lines.) To pretend that Trump holds the moral high ground is disgusting, and that's what other leaders seem to be doing here.

If I may, Saddam Hussein was beginning to follow Hitler's career, he was … terminated; no one could hold the moral high ground. But one aggressive dictator less on this poor planet is a good thing per se. When #PutinWarCriminal dies, there will be much more peace on earth.
So, about #Iran, we don't need a second North Korea, in the Middle East, strirring trouble everywhere (Syria, Lebanon, Gaza, Yemen) and slaughtering its own people. The orange pædophile might do the job.

We can be glad of outcomes and still acknowledge that the ends don't justify the means.

maya@menelion @hosford42 I think trusting what Israel has said about the death toll warrants some skepticism, particularly because they're using it as one of their justifications for war.
