    All these stupid idiots can’t think of anything better than ‘make big boom’. The world has too many dumb shits with too much access to explosives.

      You know, this is the weird thing. Go around and ask Iranians if they would like to have their government overthrown, and watch them think really hard on it.

      On the one hand: invasion sucks. Business will fail, people will die, whole areas crumbling from the bombing, the power vacuum might make things worse and some other extremist government might take it’s place.

      But on the other hand: the Iranian regime sucks, with the morals police, persecution of Iranians, subversion of Iranian culture (because not all middle eastern culture is approved by Islamists), financing all kinds of fuckery around the Middle-East and generally being a bastion of oligarchs and pure evil.

      It’s a real fucked situation, that’s for sure.

      But let’s say we do the first joint venture between NATO and the Saudis. Call it operation “calm the fuck down bruh”. We dun been building infrastructure for trade, you fucking with the pot, Iran. Simmer down. That would be the whole speech made by some token internet figure beloved by westerners and middle-easterns alike, so maybe Mia Khalifa. Then we all eat ice cream in Dubai after.
