This post reeks of ignorance and arrogance.

I am no apologist for Iran however I will say a few things out of respect for “sides.”

Iran was cut off from the rest of the world for some time now. They did something quite impressive actually, they built their own military technology, largely. I know they still use other people’s stuff and theirs isn’t quite as edge as ours however they are determined to act with their own principles and integrity, even if their ideas or behaviors do not always measure up to this. When has ours?

The global threat is lawlessness in power.

Those of institutional (state level) power should act as they are the “house”, not a gambler on the rail.

Lawlessness in power is the global threat to our humanity.
