I wonder what those overseas Iranian rallying in the streets of Vancouver and alike must be feeling right now.

I have Iranian friends settled outside Iran, some for most of their lives. Some of them went to the rallies. They want change in Iran. But it is naive to think people like them want Iran to become a western style democracy. They want change that brings them closer to free western societies, but they want it done in the context of their culture, traditions and a civilization that is among the oldest in human history.
They are worried about their friends and families in Iran. I can assure you that none of them want change through bombing of civilians and threats to end their civilization, or send it to the stone age.
Claims of Victory, Reality of Defeat: The True Picture of the America-Iran War
Multiple rounds of negotiations were already underway between America and Iran. The prospects of a deal through Omani and British mediation were strong. But President Donald Trump, provoked and encouraged by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, ordered bombing strikes on Iran.

America can be asked to leave Nato for wreakless engagement. The opening salvo says everything. Work of allies trivialized. Uber sick with open borders. Secretive bilateral agreements contrary to the common good. A culture of American exceptionalism ignoring foreign policy steered by opertunistic outsiders. Americans preferring to clamour at outcomes than to hold their government accountable on foreign policy until too late. Can't find anything on a map outside the State they live in let alone anywhere else. Suffering lives and billions addressing messes left by previous administrations. Thinking more of party affiliation than their own country and by extention all countries.

Trump and Netanyahu are both lying assholes and have broken every agreement they have ever made.
Israel makes a point of assassinating anyone in Iran who might want a peace deal.
Trump has given them locations and situational intelligence.
Iran has nothing to gain by negotiating with these scumbags.
Note that Israel bombed a hotel in the gulf states where a Palestinian negotiating team was staying. US gave them precise targeting information.
If Israel was interested in peace why would they assassinate the negotiators?
Israel is NOT interested in any peace deal. They want to annex all of Gaza and Lebanon. They have been annexing territory ever since Israel was created.

I passed by one these rallies in the street of Vancouver during the early days of the war. They were cheering what Netanyahu and Trump were doing. Kinda surprised but I felt sorry and sad for them. Little did they realize that this war wasn't to free them from an oppressive regime. Or was it about nuclear proliferation. It was far from that. Since the time of the Shah, it has always been about control. It was all over the wall. I don't understand why Iranians can't see that.
Anything Trump touches dies. Vance is about to find that out pretty soon too.
Vance shook hands with the previous Pope Francis and died the next day. I think Vance is already there lol 😂
Eric Swalwell dropped out. Not a fan of him but perfect timing for the dem machine for these allegations to come out.
This is why no good candidates run anymore(maybe they never did lol). Your whole life can be ruined by allegations that may never be proven or later down the line come out as false.
Depends who you are but guilty until proven innocent.

Anyone who sees themselves like this is completely insane.
The blowback is quite loud in maga land, denouncing trump and regretting their votes is a common theme rn.... Hilarious its Because of this post, not because of any of his other blasmapheous actions
Let's not forget his attack on Pope Leo and trump saying he's only Pope because trumps in office 🤢
As an American and Canadian citizen who voted for Trump, there is no regrets. Also no regrets with friends and family. Quite frankly my Democrat friends are supporting the action against Iran. Take the bots with a grain of salt.

Yup, sure sounds like America is on board with another illegal foreign war
And recent polling shows trumps #s dwindling within his own base because of the war and now he wants to cosplay as Jesus and tell everyone he thoughtt it was a Dr.... Maga really can't be that dumb can they? But I guess they did vote twice for a TV conman to cosplay as president
Just like to point out that ancient Persian culture is far different than Muslim culture and the Quran. Todays culture is a combination between the two cultures.

Its akin to Christianity adoption of Samhain, Yuletide, Maypole (pagan rituals) turned into Christian (Halloween, Christmas Day, Easter) holidays.
Other than not involving America in a overseas war. Which is what Trump has done, further throwing the American economy into chaos (at least for oil stocks and future- which maybe Trumps ultimate goal, and with prior knowledge able to manipulate markets to his own benefits).
Proof that he is a liar and breaks his promises.
Trump continues to add shit to the circuling cesspit that is the US government (executive, courts and legislative). Trump has allow the Supreame Court to blurr/(close the difference) between separation of state and religion.
Here is a little secret you should know. There are alot of poor and middle class people who have guns. There are more poor and middle class people with guns then rich people. In the end who do you think wins, when you piss off the middle class and poor. The rich depend on the middle class and poor to defend them, through police and armed forces.
Promethean Action argues that President Trump has “put the empire on notice” by exposing what Promethean calls a decades-long British-run extortion system centered on the Strait of Hormuz. Promethean says Trump moved to break the alleged protection racket by undermining Lloyd’s of London’s role in maritime insurance, pushing the U.S. to provide coverage, and enforcing an “all or none” approach to Iran’s oil sales. Promethean highlights UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer declining to join an American blockade and claims Britain has lost control of the choke point.

The rationale for Trump's claim: There’s nothing negotiate, we won!
Let me guess, dude. You're one of the Wall Street brokers, lol.

Everything they said is true and as stated, there's actually more that is going wrong but this shed more light on the nefarious acts than anything the industry has seen in decades. This was not made up and there are bad characters manipulating the supply chain, using exploited labor and running non-compliantly that compromises public safety every minute of every day.
The United States Interstate system long ago ran out of enough truck parking, rest areas and capacity. I-95 North you can literally walk on top of semis from DC up to Maine.
This is exactly what happens when you can print fiat to infinity. You can pay off and corrupt everyone and everything.
And please stop using the word "integrity" when talking about government or big business.
We're getting to the point unions will be useful again. And I don't mean the unions that go on strike and hold up signs. I mean the kind of unions that hung the floor managers, set fire to the factories, and shot the pinkertons.
Dispatch operations remain in foreign countries while unsafe trucks terrorize American highways. The brokers pocket the margin; the public pays the price in crashes, congestion, and national-security risks.
The carrier network racked up nearly 15,000 violations and 500 accidents in just two years while hauling freight for major shippers. Yet the carrier insists it is merely a “leasing company,” not a motor carrier, and therefore bears no responsibility for the trucks or drivers operating under its trailers.
Poverty in America. You can do something about it.
