A year and two ago I thought west Asia wouldn’t have a breakthrough in decades, I’m happy Iran proved me wrong. The fact in merely a matter of weeks the chance of the US indefinitly withdrawing from west Asia is now a very real possibility, and Israeli society is collapsing from within is something I thought I’d only ever get to see in at least 3 decades. A flash of hope in a sea of despair
We will both live to see imperialism die and that makes me very happy
Extremely happy! The death and devastation to innocents in Iran are of course extreme tragedies, but the upside is of course as you describe, a real chance for change. The US Empire has been declining for decades, and the sheer difference in how the war on Iran is going vs. the destruction of Iraq and Libya both serve to drive that point home. Iran is not Libya nor is it Iraq, and the US Empire of today is not the US Empire of 3 decades ago. Quantity turns to quality, weeks into decades, of course.
The damned beast is weak, and Iran is showing the world that it isn’t some invincible force outside of the rest of society, but deeply enmeshed within it.
