    Will Iranian’s be able to say ‘NO TO A RELIGIOUS AUTHOTARIAN REGIME’?

      Wym? I think they’ve already said no to the USA quite a few times already.

        Don’t confuse my comment for support for the US’s actions against Iran. I’m simply highlighting that Iran is talking about a success of the US people being able to make democratic changes to their government (despite all its faults), whilst their own people can’t afford the same luxury.

          So if you understand that there was no real pretext for an invasion, why are you comparing these two topics?

            Can’t I call out the hypocrisy? It’s irrelevant what the pretext was, the Iranian regime is still brutal and doesn’t allow it’s people to vote on how it’s government is run.
