Trump has attacked Iran

Claremont

So because those poor women are forced to wear the Burqa and have their rights and choices very limited, we should help them by bombing them? Stop mixing everything to justify this illegal and pre-emptive attack.

OK, we let them ramp up their nuclear capabilities, do you really think they wouldn’t use them?

Naive at best…

Government website advises against all travel to Iran for U.K. citizens, particularly those with dual Iranian/UK citizenship and has done for many years.

Oh growstuff, I wish that was true. Have they gotten rid of those vile hags, who went round battering girls and women who uncovered their hair?
Not trying to deflect the thread. Really want to know.

The evil vile hags are still in force. But they are now using drones to spot the law breakers 🤬
Plus facial recognition.

Yep!

To be honest I am totally dismayed and disgusted that posters seem to be pro Iranian culture, really?

I’m not sure anyone is pro Iranian culture, someone stating that in some parts of Iran, that her daughter actually visited, it was witnessed that some women were dressing more progressively.

How is that being “pro Iranian Culture”?

How about making the Middle East a nuclear free zone. Then everyone would be equal.

Surely we would only be “equal” if none had nuclear weapons?

Yes.

But that's not the reason. No-one said it was.
I thought you knew that 🤔

We are totally aware- you can't go bombing countries to oblivion and escalate a possible world war, because of internal cultural reasons.

On BBC News just now 'this is Netanyahu's war, he has wanted to do this for decades'

Cry rather than laugh tbh.
Girls and women required to cover just about every part of the body.Hijabs on heads, long sleeves, long jacket to cover waist, long trousers/ jeans that must go down to the ankles.
Some very brave young women have tried to buck the system but beatings and possible rapes are the outcome by their oppressive regime.

As well as torture and the death penalty for defying the compulsory ceiling laws.

Persia was a cultured civilised country years ago.
The country did have huge problems but nothing to what is happening now.

Perhaps some posters are unaware of what has been happening there, Oreo.

I couldn't believe that he'd actually done this. Mind you, if you've presented yourself as the Tough Guy leader, respected but feared who speaks softly but carries a big stick , you must, when challenged, be prepared to use The Stick.You otherwise risk identifying yourself as a Paper Tiger.
I think Mr Trump has been trapped by his own publicity.
More's the pity and the danger for the world.
My money is on the next step being more hostage-taking, unfortunately.

Perfectly show here- Netanyahu, repeatly warning about imminent threat of Iranian nuclear weapons, with diagrams and all sorts, again, and again, and again some more, since 2012.

It is copied from FB, but available to all- and shows Netanyahu giving those warnings- so not made up.

Personally I don’t care how Iran, Afghhanistan , China or any one else treats its own citizens. I do object to them sponsoring terrorism across the world and building a Nuclear weapon to threaten others with.
There is no doubt in my mind that is what they were aiming at why else would they build nuclear processing facilities deep inside a mountain and deny inspectors access. If they were genuinely innocent of that why not allow open inspections, I’m pleased the US taken action because Israel would eventually have used a nuclear weapon to do the same job

Absolutely right, RinseandRepeat.

Or if it’s more, it’s just that it’s then anti Israel and anti Trump.
The thinking doesn’t go deeper.

You are right here, ad for very good reasons, as they are the very dangerous ones putting the whole world at risk now. Netanyahu has wanted to attack Iran, and has warned of imminent access to nuclear weapons, for 20+ years.

Oh stop it, you know very well that not a single one of us does.
