 I was surprised by the amount of support Iran received online. 

Not sure why, didn’t expect that. 
 when we turn off the glowing propaganda box and just use common sense, it usually runs counter to the presstitutes narrative.

 I don't think people love Iran.  I think they can see who it is that is agitating for war, and they stand against such agitation. 
 Sadly, this shit is none of my or Washington DC’s fucking business

Anyone who thinks it is is delusional
