    If they think that will stop bombs, they’re very much mistaken.

    Although I suspect the Iranian regime know that all too well, and that this will solidify people against the invaders. It’s hard to side with people who’ve just turned your family into mince.

      This is pretty much the only strategy they have. Although their country is one third as populous as the United States, their defense department has less funding than Arkansa’s public education system. Outrage from the America public is their only defense against US military superiority.

      It’s a good strategy. I’d be upset if my tax dollars blew up thousands of civilians making a human chain around a powerplant.

    If this happens we all need to be off our asses and in the streets. No memes, no shitposting, on the fucking streets. It’s already been way too long and far for this administration to continually hold the world hostage.

      Sure but there’s so many far easier things. Buy spray paint and go out at night and write some thoughts on the walls. Do easy things that are a little bit out of your comfort zone.

      There’s no way the US is going into france protest mode over a president, it has been proven. Trump could kill half the country and the other half would go to work.

      Organize committees in work places and represent as labor. Don’t wait for the union leaders who stifle the power of labor for their own gain any chance they get. The working class needs to take this into our own hands as a class…not as individuals.

    They are going to need those if they want a country after regime change. The people showing up to defend what is their’s is a good sign.
