“No, we never asked for a ceasefire, and we have never asked even for negotiation. We are ready to defend ourselves as long as it takes," Araghchi told CBS News' Face the Nation. "And this is what we have done so far, and we continue to do that until President Trump comes to the point that this is an illegal war with no victory."

The fucking fact Iran is making reasonable and rational statements that I agree with is a wild fucking timeline.

Honestly the post-revolution government of Iran has been very reasonable with foreign policy. Not exactly a hermit nation but just kind of a "fuck off and leave us alone to do our thing".

(Of course there's also the domestic repression and support for militant groups like Hezbollah. They're certainly not overall good people by any means.)

Hezbollah only exists because of massacres like Sabra and Shatila along with the other massacres utilizing the Dahiya doctrine during the 6 Israeli invasions

American citizens need to sack up like Iran. Fuck the game up and wreck the elites and their culture.

By any means necessary. Bring back humanity to American culture.
