So there is a right-wing dude on CNN saying that for 47 years, #Iran had a desire to bring about the end of the world with a nuclear weapon.
I just have to point out that the last leader had a fatwa (religious rule) against such.
From everything I have seen and read, that is a brutally oppressive regime. But still, some people seem to be flat-out lying.
@hszakher Very interesting. I know *some* about those beliefs, but not a whole lot. However, the way the person on CNN was pushing the narrative seemed false because he emphasized the nukes (perhaps trying to sway the American public ?), which contradicted what I had read about the fatwa. I wonder if now those in power in Iran might be more likely to pursue nukes, though, since that supreme leader, Khamenei, has passed.
