Everyone talks about Israel, but no one is talking about Saudi Arabia. All the populations around there hate us, that's why Saudis flew those planes into the jewish controlled demolitions, but the government at least does what we want. All of Iran's allies in the region are shit like the Houthis or Hezbollah. They want to change the basic structure of geopolitics in the region, and fair enough, they're one of the powers in that region big enough to actually have such an ambition; but we don't want them to ("we" being the people you get to vote for, not us the voters). This shit explains everything, like why Iran was nominally on the side of Armenia in the war with the Azeris (for all the good that did them), just because Turkey was on the other side. Unfortunately for Iran they've got Russia for allies so they mostly get to eat lots of shit.
Anyway, it's all about gas prices (with the additional constraint of Rule Zero: your geopolitical solution must involve sucking jew cock). If people actually got what they voted for, the islamic world would be aligned into a great caliphate that launched suicide attacks continually until every infidel was dead or converted; and on our end, we would have nuked Mecca after 9/11.
