You can be against the US and it’s allies starting another war in the middle east plunging us into another multi decade quagmire AND you can be happy that that Islamist despot khomenini got the roof caved in on his ugly head
They’re not mutually exclusive

Correct, for some things.
Like Khomeini being buried alive for example.
The world is a better place for it.
I hope he was scared

I’m happy the guy who ordered the killing of tens of thousands of protesters, was himself killed, yes.
His stance on Genocide does not factor into my assessment of him
Hitler was a vegetarian who loved dogs… was still a cunt

Top-level comment was framing him as a feminist and had what I assume was a screengrab from his social media picturing an “inspirational” photo of a wheat field at sunrise with a muslim supplication about being sinful and repentant and asking god not to turn his face away like he rightfully does from his other servants.
Tankies hate religion except for when it’s an anti-western theocratic dictator’s religion.
They've got the tiger by the tail now, then. Either the US and Israel pursue this all the way through to full regime change, or when they finally withdraw they're going to be left with an implacable enemy for generations.
I'm sure Trump thought this all through in thorough detail, though, and has a long-term plan.
Iranian state television has released the first official death toll from the recent antigovernment protests that engulfed the country, reporting that 3,117 people were killed during the crackdown.
That’s a few but the comment was that they were peaceful protestors. This makes no mention of peaceful protestors. We know that Mossad were arming people and firing upon IRGC so there’s no surprise there’s a death toll in the thousands
Yeah plan is Israel takes whatever land they want, US removes their nuclear capabilities, bleeds them dry of resources/oil, tries to instate some puppet leader and then bounces only to let them fall into another awful dictatorship and the cycle continues.
It literally makes zero sense for Israel to claim hostile territory over 2000 kilometers away when the US already has numerous bases in the surrounding countries.
It creates a narrative for a retaliation attack (fake or real, doesn’t matter) that will shock America into forgetting about the Epstein Files. Whoever controls the release of those files holds Trump literally by his balls.
Good. Although I’m afraid not very efficient in the grand scale. Their whole system won’t probably collapse because of the death of a single scumbag, however important he might have seemed.

Maybe a concept of a plan.
Y'all are eulogizing Khamenei over on lemmy.ml?
Did you expect different behavior from them?

I’m anti-war, but I’m not going to lose sleep at night over a tyrannical leader getting bombed.
What about the school children?

Yeah about that, he already “promised” the Islamic republican guard full immunity, you know those guys brutally slaughtering peaceful demonstrators…
Ah, less than a day into the fight and Trump is already frantically looking for a way to TACO.
Got a reliable source on that slaughter of peaceful people that isn’t just a mouthpiece for the US/Israeli agenda?
Who would you believe if they were saying something you didn't want to be true?

That was the official number by 2026/01/21

Go to reddit.com/r/newiran and ask for some examples.
Do we know the mossad was arming people. Do you have a credible source and not a mouth piece news organization
Israel’s own twitter account
That you can link here?

If you think that Israel will take land from Iran you better double-check where these countries are on the map.
Duh, they can just build a bridge over Jordan and Iraque
You don’t think countries can exist non-contiguously?
Not in this neighborhood, no.
Israel has no reason not to try it with US support. I’m sure they’d love to establish some territory to the east and then squeeze to the middle.
It literally makes zero sense for Israel to claim hostile territory over 2000 kilometers away when the US already has numerous bases in the surrounding countries.
Maybe they’ll just work their way east then starting with Lebanon and Jordan.
Sure, and maybe aliens will come to Earth and just teleport the entirety of Iran to Israel’s doorstep.
The last time they installed a regime in Iran they created an enemy for generations.
I’m sure that last line was sarcasm. 🤣
No way
Well, he has a concept of a plan!
Something, something, Epstein Files
They already did this a few generations ago.
My money is on Syria but bigger.
Very long term. Maybe even Two Weeks™.
But he could not be dead. Either way, he’s gone.
Thanks Trump! Best president ever!

You smell bad
Block the troll and move on.
Way to make a martyr.
Such a good role model.
I don’t think an unpopular regime leader that oppressed the people for 37 years will become a martyr for very many people.
He probably will be a. Martyr for all the people that were fighting the protestors to keep him in power.

There do remain the fanatics, and they’re not going to change their ways, they’ll just pick a successor after running Iran by committee.
us gets bogged down into a war and all they get for it is killing an 86 year old man iran had a contingency plan for
