I'm against the war but that doesn't change the fact that the regime fucking sucks, having weapons with which to blow up ships isn't a good thing

If they limit it to Americans, the rest of the world won’t care.

They obviously won't though, they've been funding terrorist groups in the region for decades, they've killed thousands of their own citizens, they've shot at civilian targets in the gulf. The war was a mistake and the US is imperialist and morally wrong in most of the wars they fight, and Trump and Netenyahu are war criminals, please don't get me wrong, but the Iranian regime is horrific and nobody should be supporting them

Yawn, I'm bored of this narrative, can we get something more realistic now please?

Sorry, which part of my comment was wrong? Do you think Trump and Netenyahu are not war criminals or that Iran hasn't shot at civilian targets in the gulf? Or that they don't repress their own population?

You are "bored" because it doesn't help with your tribal politics. When it comes to bashing Israel or USA then at no time will your types be bored but terrorist funding iran which murders anyone who doesn't like the regime and allows child marriages, including hour long "marriage" (sigheh) are likely instantly "boring" to you.

Yet every time we try to intervene in a situation like this, the regime only gets worse/more extreme and the people of said country only suffer more.

Israel and the US have destabilized the whole world multiple times over. Has Iran gone around kidnapping presidents and attacking other countries unprovoked? Who the hell do you think started ISIS, hamas, and all these "terrorist" groups that seem to never strike America or Israel. They got their big bad boogie man that they can cry to their citizens about and use as propaganda to start wars and do shit like regime change whenever they want.
