I’m honestly a bit confused about Lonerbox (@BoxLoner) position on the current situation with Iran, and maybe I’m misunderstanding it. From what I’ve seen it sounds like he thinks the operation is bad because Donald Trump is in office, but I’ve also heard that if Joe Biden were president he might have a different stance, which is why I’m confused. Would his view actually change if the same type of operation happened under Biden, or does he think Biden would handle it differently like going to Congress first? I’m also skeptical about the idea that bombing Iran would lead to regime change, because if the U.S. bombed Iran for months I don’t think the Iranian population would suddenly become pro-U.S., it would probably just increase anti-American sentiment. It also sometimes feels like the U.S. is BITCHED by israel into a conflict with Iran . And if someone says that pointing this out automatically makes you antisemitic, I think that’s a weak argument. Criticizing U.S. foreign policy or Israel’s influence isn’t the same thing as antisemitism, and sometimes accusations of antisemitism seem to get used as a shield by bringing up grandparents’ traumatic experiences from past generations to shut down criticism instead of actually addressing the argument.
