I won't want to waste my time.
the question is; between Iran and America, who is crying now?
most of you always brag about how powerful Iran is? why can't Iran sanction America so that US citizens will start starving?

That is the problem with you guys. You won't see the political aspect of it. All you could say is Iran is crying. If you don't understand what i have written then that's your problem. You think sanction is about starving people to death. Has it achieved its expected politcal outcome? Cause that's what America wants to achieve.

America wants Iran to put and end to its ballistic missile programme and its support for proxies and that has not happened since 2018 when Trump withdrew America out of the JCPOA deal. You are here talking of who has the power to inflict suffering. Why was the suffering inflicted in the first place? Was it inflicted for fun? Hasn't Trump failed in his foreign policy in the middle east. Look at the killing of Soleimani? What did it achieve for America? Did it eradicate Iran proxies in the region? Did it put an end to Iran's military capabilities?

Look at the way Mr Trump threatened a crushing retaliatory response should Iran retaliate the killing of soleimani but Iran fired volleys of missiles that damaged their military base and gave over 100 American troops life long brain injuries yet Mr bragging president didn't do anything other than sanctions and his usual bragging on twitter that he won't allow Iran get nuclear bombs. We all should keep asking him how he intends to achieve that.

Cant you see America is even confused and does not have any effective strategy there. You are here talking of how America has the power to make Iranians beg for food lol.

You quoted me in the first place i don't have your time anymore bye.

Chief, everyone here acknowledges the fact that sanctions are crippling, from day one, Iranians have always complained and cried about how crippling sanctions have become, their leaders always lament about the sanctions, even during the Iran-Iraq war, they cried out about the sanctions, but ask yourself this question, has US achieved her aims with these crippling sanctions?

Yes, many are suffering, many are starving, many are dying, but has these stopped Iran from expanding? has it stopped Iran from building one of the finest military in the region? has it stopped Iran from being a threat to America's interest in the region? has it resulted in any regime change? these are the questions you need to answer.

Obama realized all these, reason he went the diplomatic way.
finest military in which region? how are they a threat to American interest? someone left faraway America to bully you in your own backyard, and all you can do is rant after rant.
the US aim under Trump is to deny Iran of finance to develop nuclear weapons and sponsor terrorist against Israel.
I think they are achieving that.

America is not complaining. only Iran and it supporters all over the world are boasting that sanctions are not working but they still want sanctions lifted. they use every opportunity to beg for sanctions to be lifted

No, China can't.

They have over five hundred billion dollars in the care of the Americans. They will not stupidly cause their own economic downfall by withholding supplies.

That's it. iranians are highly educated they know the politics behind this and won't allow U.S. to take over their country and install a puppet. They will continue to resist U.S. pressure and give support to their leaders they way the Cubans resisted for 60 years and are still resisting it to this day.

Everyday for 50 years, Cubans were RUNNING AWAY to Florida and you say they resisted America. I don't see people all over the world queuing at the Iranian embassy, it's the American embassy.

the sanctions is to deny Iran of finance to develop nuclear weapons....Iran don't own nuclear weapons so I don't know what you are saying. even their last attempt to shot missiles, they ended up shooting down a passenger plane containing their own citizens.


another reason for the sanctions is to deny Iran finance to sponsor terrorist against Israel. so far I think it is working. attack against Israel is reducing.

someone came from faraway America to bully you in your own backyard. they even kill your own general and term him a terrorist but all you could do is rant and shoot at empty space

America is the most powerful nation on earth, no country can rival her, it's funny how you equate Iran's military with that of the US, no basis for comparison bro, we are taking about the middle east, Iran's military is one of the finest, well trained, highly disciplined, without US, no nation in the region can outmatch the Iranian armed forces. This is fact.

the US aim under Trump is to deny Iran of finance to develop nuclear weapons and sponsor terrorist against Israel.
I think they are achieving that.

US major aim in Iran is regime change or total compliance by the Islamic mullahs, which so far has failed, Iran has continued to expand and has militias capable of fighting Israel to standstill in Lebanon, withstanding Saudi Arabia in Yemen and Protecting Assad regime in Syria, all these are against US interests.

America is not complaining. only Iran and it supporters all over the world are boasting that sanctions are not working but they still want sanctions lifted. they use every opportunity to beg for sanctions to be lifted

Anyone that tells you sanctions doesn't have a negative effect on Iranians is lying, while the sanctions are crippling, it's becoming useless because it haven't achieved any desired outcome and to some extent made Iran self reliant.

What you fail to realize is this is a game and America is losing it. If America thinks Iranians would unseat their leaders through a revolution it won't work. Sanctions don't produce their desired political outcome.,If America thinks starving ordinary Iranians is the best way then they are following the wrong path that won't take them far.

Sanctions strengthens the hardliners in Iran. Their aim is to stop Iran from getting nukes and backing proxies in the middle east. Is the pressure working? What has it achieved for them? They know they are failing but pride won't allow Mr Trump to change his decision. Or do you think President Obama was a fool when he brought Iran to the table using diplomacy?

Years back Benjamin Netanyahu was hell bent on striking Iran's Nuclear facilities Barack Obama had to tell him he was on his own if he did it. Obama knew the consequences it would have on the middle east.

Sanction is a tool a country uses to achieve its political goals, you people think America is winning because Iranians are starving and dying. It hasn't achieved anything for America politically. The Iranians are more supportive of their leaders than ever before, Iran continues to enjoy support from its proxies and keeps enriching Uranium.

Do you know why America hates Iran this much? Cause Iran is the only country in that region that can put an end to U.S. adventurism through its proxies.

Iran didn't choose this path willingly America casued it, it started in the the 50's when CIA and British Mi6 unseated the democratically elected prime minister of Iran and installed a puppet that gave America oil concessions, the I979 revolution put an end to U.S. exploitation sanctions followed as usual.

The same thing they did to Cuba when Castro and his barbudos seized power from the American puppet that was exploiting the country for America. Look at the support America gave to saddam Hussein during the Iraq iran war.

The west allowed Saddam to gas Iranians, they provided Iraq with weapons while Iran fought with her spirit. Iran has learned the hard way and has made sure she must not suffer at the hands of the enemy anymore hence her powerful and unrivaled ballistic missile programme, hence her network of proxies in the middle east. Peace bro

Let m educate u small.
Sometimes the problem na ignorance and deeply rooted biase.
1. Iran is looking for ways to hurt the USA and not to better the lives of their citizens. The USA already offered to help with the treatment and care for the infected but Iran rejected it a few days ago.
2. China does not supple the USA drugs for corona virus. If you have been listening to news and following happenings around the world you'd have discovered that the USA is on top of their game in terms of research and possible treatment for covid 19
3. Economic sanctions has nothing to do with humanitarian reliefs. If Iran will show a human face and not pretend then go behind to arrest, label and lock up AID workers like they have done in the past am sure supplies will hit Tehran.
4. Trump's actions will save more American lives in this period of covid 19. Why empower your enemy who doesn't think twice before he harms u. The right thing to do is send relief materials thru other means aside the regime. If you send it thru the govt they will sabotage it just to paint the USA black.

You could see that Iran is their own problem. After rejecting a direct offer to assist your people you turn around to say the Trump doesn't care bout you people. Even Iranians know that their govt is the problem and not the USA.

you need finance to build nuclear weapons and to sponsor terrorist.
the aim is to cut off the needed finance; to make Iran choose between providing their basic needs or sponsoring terrorist.

Obama gave them the money America stole from them before the revolution. The pro-western government there ordered fighter jets from America and they weren't delivered before and after the revolution and Iran's foreign assests were frozen for years. It's Iran's money so you have no point here. You think America was so happy with them for the JCPOA deal and gifted them billions of dollars in return. Lmao. grin grin grin

It shouldn't,because the US has exerted MAXIMUM PRESSURE phase of the sanctions. Iran can't sell her oil as would like to ; donors can't really help because they fear the backlash from the US ,as South Africa and some countries are learning.
The COVID-19 is killing Iranians with the rapidity of a machine gun.One person dies every 10 minutes in Iran.Many of the theocratic leaders have died.
The US is bent on regime change. It wants to bring down the theocratic order by Khomeni that has stood since their revolution since 1979.As a result ,Iraq has created and has been spending billions of Dollars on terrorism and the propagation of Islam in the Middle East and instead of investing the money in the people.
America is spending more money in the affairs of other nations than any other country. All countries are independent bt because of their religious agenda they're borrowing than any country in the world jst to gag some Islamic countries. America is responsible for the death of innocent souls than all crime/terrorists group in the world combined.
