So you are OK with expeling occupiers, and helping people resist, unless it happens to be Iranians for some reason? Oh yeah, because America bad?

"Palestinians to resist the relentless Israeli onslaught? Helping Afghans and Iraqis to expel American occupiers"


But what occupiers are you referring to in the context of Iran?


The authoritarian theocratic mob occupying power that the people wish to take back for themselves.

In reply to your after-the-fact edit: Hasbara is specifically an Israeli/Zionist phenomenon, not a Jewish one.


Was going to bed and couldn't reply so edited to call out your 'special use case' of using jewish language to identify something for the racism it is.

I don't care one whit about your internet justification for your racism. Your shamelessness about it is on you. Should I use the term taqiyya if I feel someone is lying about something related to Islam or repressive backwards Islamic theocracies? Hell no, that sort of subtle use of language in that way is for racist intentions.

Fun fact, this thread is about Iran. You can oppose both the Israelis and the horrific repressive theocratic leaders in Iran. A free Iranian people shouldn't be repressed because it conflicts with your agenda for the region.
