The neocons say Iran *could* develop nukes with the amount of enriched Uranium they have in weeks or months. So we need to bomb the shit out of them until they don't have that capability.
But Iran isn't particularly closer now to making a nuke than it was 3 months ago or 3 years ago, and if we wanted peace, we could keep negotiating, and they'd likely give up their stockpile.
The Russians say Israel's war is about regime change and
breaking the Axis of Resistance and this seems more right to me. Bibi might feel like he's at the zenith of his power right now; Trump is his guy at the moment, but won't be president forever, and popular opinion, even among boomer U.S. conservatives, is rapidly turning against Israel. If there was a moment to take out your regional enemy, now might be the best shot he has.
I like the Shia more. They are more democratic and always cared more about your average Abu and Mohammed.
Outside of the sects, the Persians are a cooler and more stable culture. They've actually ran a functioning mid east democracy for almost 50 years without any coups or civil wars. They respect the rights of their minorities, including their jewish minorities. If you ever meet any Iranians IRL, you will find them educated, earnest, and interested. And you can play Backgammon with them.
Unfortunately we are aligned with the Sauds, who are thug Bedouin gangsters, and Israelis, who are thug Zionist banksters.
