You glossed over the 100+ school children killed by American strikes (not Israel). If it was your kid, what would you do?

You glossed over 30,000 protesters killed by the Iranian government on January 8th and 9th.

They have nothing to do with the war. War stopped the protests. And if anything war killed the internal opposition and cemented power in the armed guards. What was weak unsupported regime gained a lot of strength.

So the solution is have the U.S. military order multiple strikes on a grade school as a response?

I’m sure they appreciate your liberation attempt very much. #AmericaFirst

Do better.

Always open to suggestions. What about my point?

If you were an Iranian protestor watching your schools and bridges being targeted by Americans, how would you feel about the liberation?

Those protests were by Iranians against their government, who then decided to go kill its own people for expressing their dissent.

And then the American bombs dropped on their children.

Grieve.

Fair. Just as the Americans did after 9/11, perpetrated by attackers from Saudi Arabia.
