Why are people always demonizing poor Iran?

1 Name: Anonymous : 2015-12-03 21:16
Iran does not hate anyone. They dont hate people only the policies of the U.S. and Israel and thats understandable. Have you forgotten about the U.S. sanctions for 35 years? And the U.S. forced Europe to go along with this stupidity. When you have 35 yr old American airplane parts you get plane crashes. Or how about the 1953 overthrow of Mossadegh just so the king could rule as an evil, bloodthirsty tyrant with no good men to oppose him?

Israel and Saudi are against Iran being a normal functioning state because it will become economically prosperous. They have no real reason to be against it except they dont want competition.

Plus don't forget about how Israel beats the drums of war all the time against Iran and threatens them and commits genocide and apartheid against the Palestinians

because they are a bunch of AD600 theocracy freaks who are anachronistic to the modern world and all decency..

Israel beats no drums of war on Iran, it is those psychos who cannot STFU about Israel..."Little Satan"..you want to give the A-bomb to a bunch of infants who say "Little Satan"..

I've seen Iranians online...they parrot this 'we wish only piss to all nations"

then in the next breath, they tell you that america is the great Satan, and Israel must be destroyed.

Why is Iran always calling us the Great Satan?

Sanctions in response to Iran bombing US citizens

Or how about the 1953 overthrow of Mossadegh just so the king could rule as an evil, bloodthirsty tyrant with no good men to oppose him?

The same Mossadegh whom the Mullahs threw the remnants of his party in prison or worse for being infidel communists?

Israel was friends with Iran under the Shah. It was Khomeini who started spewing venom and threatening their destruction first.

threatens them and commits genocide and apartheid against the Palestinians

The Palestinian population that continues to rise every year and whose yearly death toll is less than American gang wars?

Why is Iran holding Americans prisoners - without charges, without trials, without even the sentences being made known?

I know, I know, we are holding "suspected" terrorists at Guantanamo, thanks to Bush & Co. But, hopefully, that is coming to an end. Also, two wrongs don't make a right. And further, Obama signed a "deal" with Iran that virtally gave then everything, and we got almost nothing. Who ever heard of the "inspectors" being the very people who are being inspected?! Nuts!!

Why weren't the few people being held in Iranian prisons released, at least once we agreed to this nonsensical "deal", especially since their crimes have not been elaborated upon or explained, other than that they were "spying". Where's the evidence, the proof?

So, where is the truth and justice that you say the US lacks and that Iran has? I needn't ask how many people of the world would prefer to live here rather than in Iran. That should shed some light on the comparison between our own imperfect state, and the way Iran is perceived in the world.

Mossadegh was NOT TIED TO THE COMMUNISTS! The US lied so that they could overthrow him!

Regardless what he was the Mullahs threw his party in jail and from what i've read don't even teach about him in their public schools yet we are supposed to believe that is why Islamic extremists are upset at the USA? No matter what he was a secular socialist who would have been imprisoned himself had he lived to see the rise of the Ayatollah.

Also a bit of history trivia, the British overthrew Reza Shah Pahlavi Sr. to put his son on the throne too during WW2, why don't left-wing scholars ever point to that equally pivotal event as to why they hate western regimes?

"Why is Iran always calling us the Great Satan? "

It is because according to Islamic philosophy freedom entails evil. Since God causes everything then naturally freedom, the uncaused, is evil. Actually Geroge Bush was closer to the truth when he stated "They hate is for our freedoms". Of course he ought to have said that they hate us for our freedoms because freedom is what creates evil, or freedom is what makes evil possible.

But this goes even deeper into mysticism, since they believe that these Djins or demons are the only earthly entities who have free will, and so human beings who commit evil are actually possessed by these djins. Some say that cats are posessed by these demons.

Good analysis, "they hate us for our freedoms!" is rather simplistic, rather they hate what freedom brings which is girls in miniskirts, blasphemous TV shows like South Park, sex drugs and rock and roll, etc. etc.

Why?

Lets see

Kidnapped and held Diplomats hostage for over a year after storming the American Embassy

Laid Mines in the Persian Gulf to sink other Nations Oil Tankers

Kidnapped American and Europeans through their proxies in Lebanon

Bombed the Kobal Towers

American Embassy Annex Bombing of 1984

Iranian proxies killed an estimated 1,100 US troops in Iraq

Iranian support for al Qaeda and Taliban insurgents in Afghanistan

Not to mention their continued support both financially and Militarily of Hamas and Hezbollah

The list goes on and on

The Iranian government is not as "evil" as some Americans make them out to be but they are far from innocent. In addition to being a theocratic dictatorship, they support Hezbollah which has caused plenty of destruction in Lebanon and even in Argentina, which has nothing to do with anything.

Iran does not hate anyone

Just gays, woman, anyone non-Muslim and in fact every single person with any resentment towards the Iranian theocracy(and I'm talking about it's own citizens)

or how about the 1953 overthrow of Mossadegh just so the king could rule as an evil, bloodthirsty tyrant with no good men to oppose him?

The shah was far from a perfect leader but considering what came next and what was before he was like Bernie Sanders.

Plus don't forget about how Israel beats the drums of war all the time against Iran and threatens them

Pretty sure you have it backwards. There isn't a week where Iran hasn't declared at least ones that they want to annihilate Israel. Khamenei even wrote a dam book about it.

commits genocide and apartheid against the Palestinians

Worst genocide attempt in history considering the fact the Palestinian population has more than quadruple it's population in the area since Israel was established and also worst apartheid attempt considering the Arabs living in Israel have better living condition than most Arabs in any other Arab state.

And lets not forget that Iran is the biggest sponsor of terrorism in the world. It is true that they never physically attacked another country for a long time they just pay terrorist to do it.
