Actually in America nobody talks about the Iranian people, nobody gives a fuck, probably less than half the people could find Iran on a map.

Which makes the fact that they at least used to adore America and American TV interesting.

That is still true, but they dont have any choices, the leadership has been competent, and they are now backed by China, it does not look like they are going anywhere.

ideology more then fantasy.. In Russia's case its a "zero sum game" = anything good for them is bad for us.
Leads to Empire ( as you call it) and needless division between Biden and Germany (Nordstream 2)

The Empire has nothing to do with my ideology, it is a reality on the ground.

I am only a reporter with good vision.
 
So this is interesting, apparently we killed Iraqis:
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, a Britain-based group that monitors the war in Syria, said the strikes targeted a shipment of weapons that were being taken by trucks entering Syrian territories from Iraq. The group said 22 fighters from the Popular Mobilization Forces, an Iraqi umbrella group of mostly Shiite paramilitaries that includes Kataeb Hezbollah, were killed. The report could not be independently verified.
