Seb
rank | Tue Mar 17 14:56:41 Isn't it, how Israel's targeted assassinations always prioritise the more moderate leaders of factions that want to negotiate peace. |
|
Rugian
rank | Tue Mar 17 15:10:20 ...like the ayatollah? |
|
jergul
rank | Tue Mar 17 15:15:53 You mean the dude that made it illegal for Iran to develop nukes? He had a very moderate position on a pretty important thing. As to the question. Not funny at all. Israel benefits from hardliners. Its why it created hamas. |

rank | Tue Mar 17 15:18:25 The dude had specialized in Emmanuel Kant of all things (a very christian philosopher that wrote on the inherent kindness of man). |

Rugian
rank | Tue Mar 17 15:59:22 Jergul Trolling can be funny, but past a certain point it just makes you look stupid. |
|
Seb
rank | Tue Mar 17 16:01:35 Larijani - heads the peace faction; opposed Khameini junior (hardliner) being appointed and has been pushing for opening peace talks with trump. |

Pillz
rank | Tue Mar 17 16:03:10 But seb still supports the head of Al-Nursa as leader of a 'free and democratic syria' |
|
jergul
rank | Tue Mar 17 16:14:34 Ruggy I was not actually trolling. The Ayatollah blocked any domestic forces that sensibly thought nuclear weapons were the only real way to deter a serious attack by Israel and the US over the long term. |
|
jergul
rank | Tue Mar 17 16:15:50 You could say he was old, so that security assurance was going to end pretty soon anyway. But Iran would not have nukes for as long as he remained alive. |
|
jergul
rank | Tue Mar 17 16:18:12 Note also that the restraint Iran showed when attacked earlier by the US also ended with his death. He did actually call the response shots. It did not serve Israeli interests that Iran could not be gauded into a proper conflict, so problem solved I guess. |

Sam Adams
rank | Tue Mar 17 16:33:07 ”Larijani - heads the peace faction” No wonder the UK is declining so rapidly. This is fundamentally idiotic on such a profound level it shows the speaker has no ability to process information in the modern world and will never be able to function properly. |
|
jergul
rank | Tue Mar 17 16:33:44 Nope. He nailed it. Israel is doing its normal thing of getting rid of moderates to make room for extremists that in turn justify Israel's stance on no negotiations. |
|
Sam Adams
rank | Tue Mar 17 16:34:01 And then there's jergul. "The ayatolla didn't want a nuke" Lmfao. |
|
jergul
rank | Tue Mar 17 16:41:14 He issued the equivalent of a US Supreme Court ruling on the matter back in 2003 or 2005. It banned the development of nuclear weapons. It still stands for as far as we know, but a new fatwa by his replacement may not necessarily be public given that Iran is under attack. |
|
jergul
rank | Tue Mar 17 16:44:01 The people that actually want nukes may have engaged in some brinkmanship like enriching uranium up to 60&, but not beyond that. Until very recently at least. |

Sam Adams
rank | Tue Mar 17 17:09:00 Lol. No. |
|
jergul
rank | Tue Mar 17 17:29:23 Lol. Yes. |

rank | Tue Mar 17 20:33:42 It is not funny. It is because they are vampires. They feed on blood. They can not live without it. |
