Brilliant comment in the FT

@jschwa1 and yet.. completely missing the plight of the Iranian resistance, the tens of thousands dead during protests and since the war, the ongoing slaughter, terror, abuse and torture of hospital staff, civilians and protestors of the regime (and the US history with said regime and the one before it), the net blackout, the increase of terrorists inside Iran and neighbouring states and the complete mess surrounding Netanyahu.

I really can't hear the "Hormuz-Oil" simplifications anymore.

@jschwa1 Discussion of how to support Iranians towards democracy would be nice, too - how to bridge the factions supporting different options for interim leaders and who even would be viable, not in a "biggest asset for western trade" sense, but in a "biggest chance for reparation, peace and human rights" sense.
