      Consider this folks. It’s the Iranian State that controls the levers in question being sanctioned.

      That’s weird because Trump unilaterally ripped up the Iran nuclear deal in 2015 and reimposed sanctions without any violation from Iran.

              That’s not how anything works. And despite crippling sanctions Iran is in a much better state than Iraq and Afghanistan.

      Sanctions were lifted in 2015. You can see for yourself what the effects were.

          Sanctions were reimposed recently. Like I said, go see what happened after the sanctions were lifted.

          If you think the only one with power in Iran is Khomani, you don’t understand the basics of the Iranian power structure.

    We can lift sanctions after they stop being shitty to themselves and supporting Russia. Not before.

      If the west was not shitty to Iran , they eouldn’t have to rely on Russia. It is still time for the west to fix this remove all sanctions qnd increase trade in exchangle of Iran stopping supporting Russia

      “We must collective punish the Iranian people until they overthrow their government and install a Western backed puppet regime”

      Strange how you didn’t just state that they should stop supporting Russia as the demand. Iran started supporting Russia more after mountains of Western sanctions when they complied with the no-nuclear deal. Wonder why.

        Western progressives love collectively punishing brown people. They were cheering on Israel for years and only shut up recently because the optics weren’t so good anymore.
