... It truly saddens me that Americans... - generalizing! One thing that Americans (generally speaking) DO know, Trumpsters and the rest of us, is that there are too many Iranians and people from the Middle East who are jealous of the U. S. and deliberately take time out of their day to shout "DEATH TO AMERICA" (and they've been doing that since, at least, the 1970's!)
Hey bro... i appreciate it that you wrote that about iran... but you know my real oponion... Do you know i'll tell you honestly... iran is so beautiful... nature... history and culture... and i really love its nature...
I'm not a trump supporter but I enjoyed this MyTake. I already knew this about Iran as I'm usually am good with keeping up my world knowledge bc I'm interested in food and tourism around the world.
That was interesting, but what does any of this have to do with tensions? The tensions are between our governments, not our people, or at least that how it's supposed to be.
Yes, I read the prologue, I'm assuming that was from Twitter? I wouldn't take tweets seriously, it's a platform that exist exclusively so people can say stupid stuff to stir the pot and those people shouldn't have made it about the quality of the land itself or the people, but rather the government that supports terror that we want eradicated.
Okay, but those are just a few people trying to stir things up that is in no way representative of how conservatives generally feel about what's happening.
Yeah, as I expected, they accused me of spreading Liberal propaganda. One stupid soldier commented that he spent time in this part of the world and there is nothing wonderful about the people. When I asked him if he's been to Iran he replied, "No, Iraq." That should be saying enough.
I wouldn't say Hannity is "racist", but he makes a lot of "inaccurate generalizations" All I will say is, I used to watch Hannity and now I don't. I even told my mom to stop watching Fox News, because it was giving her an inaccurate perception of the world.
Even though I'm a Conservative, I'm not a fanatical Trump supporter. YES, he might have done some good things for the economy, but that doesn't change the fact that him and his supporters are extremely ignorant about the world. As much as I hate to admit it, Hillary Clinton was right when she said that a lot of Trump supporters are deplorables.
Well now that the government shot down the civilian plane... the citizens are pissed rn. Iran is in a see saw rn. Pissed from the takeout of a leader to not being supportive of government
Yeah, decades of oppressing their female population, arresting journalism and supporting Hezbollah, and it's a downed Ukrainian aircraft that finally made people say "Enough!"
I hope they beat up the Ayatollah to the point where he can never walk again.
Thanks for making this post. It's important to try and educate people. As with all countries, despite what modern media tries to make us feel, not everyone is bad there. Have a nice day. 🙃
Iran is an islamic theocracy attempting to disguise itself as a democracy and it does not support Israel's right to exist; it never has. I'm not saying everyone there is evil, they aren't, but their government is. Of course, so is ours... but at least we aren't a theocracy
Thank you for posting this. It’s critically important for everyone to have all the facts instead of jumping to conclusions. In the Information Age, ignorance is a choice.
As well it should and that’s exactly my point in my above conversation with Zeus here.
I don’t give a rats ass about the ancient and culturally vibrant nation of Persia. Anyone who uses acts of aggression against my country and chants “Death to America” and openly admits to wanting to wipe Israel from the map... and then is given a nuclear deal by Obama... well I say to hell with education on Iran as I support turning their culturally vibrant and ancient country to dust.
Kidnap our sailors and seize our naval vessels, shoot down our drones and attack our embassies... because of economic sanctions applied to a country who threatened and says such things... who in the past sacked our embassy and took our people hostage... f*ck Iran. Turn it to a place of dust and ashes. I’m sick of these Islamic fundamentalist terrorist states and organizations running around and blowing up whatever and whoever in the name of Allah. We should been far less tolerant a long, long time ago. So turn culturally vibrant eye ran to ashes and rust since they can’t play nicely and want to preform acts of war against the mighty U. S.
Also no boots on the ground. Just continually conventionally bomb it until there’s literally nothing left anywhere? What about the civilians someone will say... too bad! Why should our people die and our debt rise to control a situation like this again? AGAIN? Give a warning for civilians to leave the country, the kill and destroy everything that remains.
@ZeussLightningBolt I'm aware all Iranians don't yell that. My point is that the way they are portrayed by the media gives the impression to the average American that all of them do. It just shows that the media can easily spin something to sway the masses regardless of whether it's true or false.
Ok... so not all of them say that... just like 85% of them... whatever.
Watch a video of the latest tyrant leader of Iran having to tell people “when we say death to America... we don’t mean American citizens... just Trump and John Bolton... ect” That is not an exact quote but a paraphrase.
So it doesn’t matter the perception the media gives or what the average person Iran thinks... let alone the fact they have to be told that... what matters is what their leaders intend and want to do. What matters is: here the U. S. has to go again in fighting another radical Islamic terrorist state or organization that could potentially be another costly and endless war costing us billions of dollars and many lives. So let’s just blow it to pieces and save ourself the trouble. Let’s stop being nice and worrying about the civilians even... who have no problem chanting “Death to America”... and let’s give the civilians like 24 hours warning to leave the country... then continually bomb every square inch of it and literally destroy everything and kill everything left and that can serve as a permanent reminder of what will happen to Islamic radical country’s... and that were not spending our lives and money to straighten out your turd of a courtly and make the world safe anymore... you want to make threats and carry out small attacks... fine... we’ll just turn your country to rust and ashes and piss on the remnants of it and go back to peacefully living our lives.
Let me also people just assume Iran should bend their ass over to the United States and give up Shia Islam, no. Understand Qom in Iran is one of the holiest cities in the world and that direction and knowledge will see the 12th imam return, followed by Jesus. Anyone who compares Iran to Nazi Germany are mentally retarded. America's government is far worse and they get away with genocide, murder and look at the regime there. Yet people want to demonize Islam... Okkk there.
"Beginning in the mid-1980s, however, transgender individuals were officially recognized by the government and allowed to undergo sex reassignment surgery. As of 2008, Iran carries out more sex change operations than any other nation in the world except Thailand"
Are you telling me some of those hot Iranian girls, are actually hot Iranian men? OH MY GOD! In an Islamic country? REALLY? That's hypocritical!
You just bought into some of their propaganda. It doesn’t make you a bad person. You just don’t get what is actually going on with them. They do target civilians. It might not always be America civilians. Iran is a very sick nation. They are one of the largest supporters or terrorism in the area. There is no such thing as a good terrorist only aiming at military. Have you ever heard of a good gangbanger? Doesn’t exist.

Yeah, I know where you stand

Facebook and Yahoo News. Lol
Okay, but those are just a few people trying to stir things up that is in no way representative of how conservatives generally feel about what's happening.
Excellent take sir!!
Sadly, you certainly realize that those Trump supporters don't remotely care about facts like those.
They almost certainly think we are seen by the rest of the world as the good guys in this scenario.
Yeah, as I expected, they accused me of spreading Liberal propaganda.
One stupid soldier commented that he spent time in this part of the world and there is nothing wonderful about the people.
When I asked him if he's been to Iran he replied, "No, Iraq." That should be saying enough.
They certainly are a hypocritical, dim-witted racist bunch... much like their leader.
They're extremely uneducated about the world
by choice sadly
That's actually true. They'd rather watch Hannity instead of Bourdain
Perfect example!! 🤣🤣🤣 Says racist things constantly but is shocked and distressed when called on it... just like them
I wouldn't say Hannity is "racist", but he makes a lot of "inaccurate generalizations"
All I will say is, I used to watch Hannity and now I don't.
I even told my mom to stop watching Fox News, because it was giving her an inaccurate perception of the world.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aRJO6jZxwzw ahhh Fox being Fox and the Trumptards buy this 100%
my neighbors were Iranian and they were very nice people. I have nothing against them it's the zealots and government that I don't like
Exactly
Well now that the government shot down the civilian plane... the citizens are pissed rn. Iran is in a see saw rn. Pissed from the takeout of a leader to not being supportive of government
Yeah, decades of oppressing their female population, arresting journalism and supporting Hezbollah, and it's a downed Ukrainian aircraft that finally made people say "Enough!"

Thank you for posting this. It’s critically important for everyone to have all the facts instead of jumping to conclusions. In the Information Age, ignorance is a choice.
What Trump supporters don't know would fill a set of encyclopedias.
The media showing Iranians burning American flags and shouting "Death to America" kinda shapes the average person's perception of Iranians.
They're talking about out GOVERNMENT
As an American, I take offense to chants of "Death to America's Government" too.
Not EVERY Iranian chants that
@Straight_shooter
As well it should and that’s exactly my point in my above conversation with Zeus here.
I don’t give a rats ass about the ancient and culturally vibrant nation of Persia.

And that's EXACTLY why I wrote this MyTake
Watch the Rick Steves documentary
Regardless of their rich culture, Iran has aggressively attacked and supported attacks on Americans. There's only one way to deter that...
Ok... so not all of them say that... just like 85% of them... whatever.
Watch a video of the latest tyrant leader of Iran having to tell people “when we say death to America... we don’t mean American citizens... just Trump and John Bolton... ect” That is not an exact quote but a paraphrase.

You burn the American flag you're dead to me personally, there's no need to look further into it.
In this video, Iran's foreign minister Javid Zarif explained the tension between Iran/US very well.
https://www.youtube.com/embed/PyH6QmFmeZELet me also people just assume Iran should bend their ass over to the United States and give up Shia Islam, no. Understand Qom in Iran is one of the holiest cities in the world and that direction and knowledge will see the 12th imam return, followed by Jesus. Anyone who compares Iran to Nazi Germany are mentally retarded. America's government is far worse and they get away with genocide, murder and look at the regime there. Yet people want to demonize Islam... Okkk there.
Fun fact about Iran is you can change your gender there
I also heard a story where they might make marijuana legal
Stop spreading missinformation :p
No really it is true lol
It is true, they think you can be trapped in the wrong body or something.
"Beginning in the mid-1980s, however, transgender individuals were officially recognized by the government and allowed to undergo sex reassignment surgery. As of 2008, Iran carries out more sex change operations than any other nation in the world except Thailand"
Are you telling me some of those hot Iranian girls, are actually hot Iranian men? OH MY GOD!
In an Islamic country? REALLY? That's hypocritical!
Eh well there you go
Trump supporters won't like that one though
You are also allow to be transgender in Pakistan and you can't discriminate against transgenders in Pakistan
But being gay in both Iran and Pakistan is illegal lol
Well, I knew about the trannies in Pakistan, but I thought they weren't treated very nicely.
Good God. This really makes me wonder
Bahrain is an Islamic country and the LGBTQ community have rights there
Also, you can drink alcohol in Bahrain
Wonder about what lol
Alcohol I know, but I thought Islam was against all the LGBT shit
I found a poll from a couple years ago where 52% of American Muslims support LGBTQ
www.hrc.org/.../majority-of-american-muslims-now-support-lesbian-gay-and-bisexual-people
I believe it
Muslims used to vote Republican until after 9/11
Could you take place of president Donald Trump if not then please save it.
My best friend is Iranian she awesome their food awesome.
I'm a Trump supporrer and already agreed with you before reading this lol. Not ever iranian or Iraqi citizen are terrorists. It's just the radivals.
The problem isn’t the geography it is the people. The Iranians. The land and animals can stay.🤣
Okay. Did you not read any of the anything past the "cultural heritage" section?
Sorry man. Nothing will change my opinion on them. They got to go.
You see, stuff like that really saddens me
You just bought into some of their propaganda. It doesn’t make you a bad person. You just don’t get what is actually going on with them. They do target civilians. It might not always be America civilians. Iran is a very sick nation. They are one of the largest supporters or terrorism in the area. There is no such thing as a good terrorist only aiming at military. Have you ever heard of a good gangbanger? Doesn’t exist.
Not the people though
You have bought into Fox News propaganda. Just watch the Rick Steves documentary,
I don’t watch the news. I use more real world sources for my information.
Life experience that’s all.
Talk to some Iranians then :)
Why would he? He's happy in his fog of stupidity and bigotry.
@Marriedwith2 Yawn!
A beautiful country, indeed. The only problem with Iran is Iranians.
