All is fair in war. We invaded Iraq trying to turn them into a US puppet state. It hard to take issue with Iran trying to do the same thing. Blame George bush.

Taking the US embassy back by force was nessicary, killing a coveted protected military general of a Batshit crazy nation of pretty well armed already pissed off.

Iran views the US as an occupying force and is behaving so.
Imagine, just for a moment...
In the 70s Iran destabilized the US government and installed their own puppet leader in place. Then they bankrolled and armed Canada to start a war with the US, resulting in more than half a million deaths.
Then their Canadian leader decides he's going to take the whole region so Iran brings the big guns and starts wiping out the Canadians as well. Meanwhile separatist groups have sprung up, as is inclined to happen after decades of war, and Iran comes back killing people left right and center looking for WMDs that don't exist.
Meanwhile the US is starting to get pissed because every generation of people in their country have experienced war since the 70's. The patriots want revenge on Iran because they keep killing people and trying to fuck with their way of life. The vast majority of people just want to live in peace though.
But, Iran won't leave the area. It's now friends with Canada and keeps tearing up and down the countryside looking for terrorists. It knows it's people weren't terrorists before Iran came over and started fucking shit up. But what does one do?
Those in America that attack the occupying Iran force in Canada and states around are branded as evil by the people in Iran. The people in Iran just don't understand why the Americans just want them to take their toys and fuck off home.
Ironic really.

I've hungout in a gang house with bloods partying it was a good time and everyone got along. I still wouldn't call it safe or recommend going there.

A gang of blood poser wannabes in a house party is definitely well compared to country on the other side of the world that is only talked about in the news. For sure man, you definitely have a level head and good understanding of the world

Except it is Iran that is trying to destabilize Iraq. The us is no longer an occupying force. Should we allow a foreign power to destabilize the country we just spent American blood and treasure to liberate from a despot dictator?

You basically summed up Iran (without having ever been there either for the record) as a 99% fun loving place that just parties at raves and "does cool shit in the desert".
Fact: ALL western music is banned in Iran and will get you thrown in jail.
So yeah the desert rave utopia of Iran you seem to have in your head seems...a little unrealistic.
But no, I haven't been there either personally, so yes, it would be unfair to judge it. I agree.
You haven't been either. Maybe you should. You can do a little amateur YouTube documentary on the desert rave scene there and prove me wrong.
I probably would advise against telling them you're American though as Northerner mentioned.

That's a pretty big jump you made from the USA's support (a long with the Europeans ) of Iraq in the Iran-iraq war to the us bankrolling saddam and therefore being responsible for him. Pretty easy to draw conclusions when you make shit up.
FWIW I don't think we should have gone back to Iraq, but I am of the opinion that we broke it and have a duty to keep it from descending into chaos or becoming a puppet of Iran
USA doesn't buy middle eastern oil anymore. Drill baby drill!

If the US leader was engaging in black ops against another countryβs embassy for sake of conquest. Well, sucks to be him. In this case I have no empathy for the opposing team. Do you know what happens when an attack on an embassy is successful? Real fucked up shit.
An attack on the US embassy is the equivalent of an attack on the mainland. Itβs dirty pool and has to be responded to with extreme prejudice.
American embassies are attacked with regularity. We have never responded as though it was an attack on American soil. Not once.

Lol, youre adorable niffla. I didn't call it a rave utopia. Never said suggested the word utopia. I get it you're unhappy that I've contradicted you're idealistic belief that the USA is surrounded by ruthless enemies. The belief you have invested so much of your thought and emotion into. It's a belief that you probably enjoy and wouldn't want to see it go away. To have someone like me suggest otherwise; triggers that nerve in the back of your head. I remember now I've gotta be careful when suggesting unfamiliar concepts to the classic privalaged American. I forgot that you're a die hard baseball fan, which is a dead give away when identifying a narrow mind which needs to be handled delicately
Plenty of people have already done their own YouTube docs visiting and yes, even raving in Iran. A quick youtube search will show you more evidence of that than you'd probably hope to not see.
