pretty classic irgc propaganda
she asks are you going to hold the world ransom by keeping the straight of hormuz shut, he rambles on about how the usa attacked us and didn’t answer the question at all
greens voters would be cumming in their pants when he said gaza as well
The actual answer is that Iran doesn’t have the fire power nor allies in the middle east to defeat the USA, and so this is one of the few levers they have to put pressure on the USA and it’s allies, sadly so far it has not worked out for them as well as they’d hoped
Ironically I’d like to thank the evil child killing régime that just a year or 2 ago was killing women for not wearing the mandatory islamic helmet for doing this, as oil stocks and demand plumet you (just like evil Russian regime) are helping the planet to decarbonise faster :)
Just a reminder for all non-greens voters, Iranians all over the world cheered when USA attacked IRGC because:

No, she implies that Iran shouldn't be doing it: "What right does iran have...".
She gets an answer that counters this sentiment, by adding context. The context is, that this didn't come from nowhere, but rather is a response to the US attack on Iran.
The thing about " defending the gulf" is a little thin, but he can't say the reason, that you've stated, on TV.
Combine that with your idea of a "child killing regime of iran" and the relevance becomes obvious.
Did your survey also find, that majority of iranians want their country to be bombed by the US?
You mean like these?

I have no idea why you guys are so absolutely gushing to stand up for islamic dictatorships, confuses the hell out of me
America fucks literally everything it touches. Do you think from them bombing the shit out of everything is going to make meaningful cultural change in Iran?
What did they think Trump was going to do if Iranian refugees asked for help? He wasn't going to send a fruit basket with a passive aggressive note.
G'day mate, I'm Australian not Iranian
Majority of Americans reject Trump too but you don't see Iran bombing America for it
As I mentioned in my original post Iran doesn't have the capability nor capacity to bomb America, they do not even have the capability to take out the USA on home soil, hence why they have shut the straight, to try and 'pressure' everyone who sends ships or receives goods through it to put pressure on America, they cannot win in a straight military war, they would be utterly crushed Gaza style
Secondly Dickfingers and his entire crew of clowns are practically saints compared to the evil of the IRGC
