He was MURDERED by the US in a Perfidious and Cowardly Sneak Attack.

Will the Funeral also be Targeted?

Americans Show No Respect for Law or Life.

Swine. It makes me Ashamed to be a Countryman with Such Miscreants.

They belong in Hell.

Not on TV pontificating about a War they are Losing.

They have no Sense of how Evil they really Are.

It's Appalling to watch Trump Drone On like a Mental Patient.

Everything is about HIM, and HE'S Never to Blame.

This Country is in the Thrall of the Dumbest and Most Craven, Demigogue in American History.

Stupid to the Last even in it's most Characteristically Iconic Moments.

America, 250 Years of Folly and Murder....

"AI Overview
Recent polling indicates that only about 11% to 20% of Iranians support the Supreme Leader, the Ayatollah, and the principles of the Islamic Revolution.

The vast majority of the population"often cited as roughly 70% to 80%"opposes the current regime and desires fundamental political change."

He was nearly no one's hero in Iran, but regime change by outsiders lets them off the hook... in this case, the leadership now is no better liked.

Love them or hate them, Iran, the IRGC-QF and MOIS are not going anywhere.

Israel's US demonization and vilification campaign against Iran, one of the few Muslim countries alongside Turkiye that stand up to Israel's genociding the Palestinians, isn't working anymore.

That's why Israeli trolls are now sliming NATO ally Turkiye whose soldiers died alongside US Marines in South Korea, unlike the IDF whose soldiers didn't fight with the US in Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan, or anywhere

See NYC primary results: all three winners are pro-Palestine Democrats, including Jewish Brad Lander.

Selective concern for the poor enslaved Iranian population while ignoring the poor enslaved Palestinian people is disingenuous.

BLUF: Americans are sick and tired of AIPAC and letting Israel bankrupt our country: $113.3bn so far.
