All I can say is the world, and this life, is very unfair. Some people, or should I say most Christians and southerners, are against Iran simply because of Islam. In reality and historically, it is the US-led West that has been antagonising the region ever since the discovery of crude oil or even during the Ottoman Empire (see below):

Here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1953_Iranian_coup_d%27%C3%A9tat and here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iranian_Revolution

Why was then Prime Minister Mohammad Mosaddegh overthrown? Simply because he asked that the accounts of the oil company (now BP) operating in the country be audited. That was all o.

Many people refuse to acknowledge this important part of history or even bother to look it up, then run along to shout "Iran is supporting terrorism yen yen yen", "Islam this and that", even when history and recent events clearly show that the US has formed and armed more Islamic terror groups than actual Islamic countries have done. Life has taught me that humans have their own cultures and ways of life. It is not my business to dictate how other people should live their lives, provided they keep those beliefs to themselves and do not bring them near me. When I am in their lands, I would respect those customs, and when/if e tire me, I pack my kaya and go back to my land. If I want their resources, I negotiate with them using hard business sense rather than military threats. We do business, and after that, we go back to our respective homes. Would I oppose your Sharia? No. Do I want Sharia in my land? No. Let's just do business and go.

So, when I read some of our people speak ill of Iran, including many esteemed posters on Nairaland and elsewhere on social media platforms, I find it odd because these are people who just want to control their affairs according to their cultural beliefs and trade with the rest of the world. In this military conquest, the Iranians are clearly innocent, and the attacks are clearly unwarranted and very unfair.

At the end of the day, the mission is to stop China's economic rise by all means. So far, we have had:
- Removal of the Hong Kong/Chinese firm that operated the Panama Canal for frivolous reasons.
- Bar Venezuela from selling oil to China
- Attack corporate Chinese interests across the world, and most recently in the DRC, where officials who opposed the sale of mining rights to a US company were sacked by the president. The Chinese were willing to invest more than the US company o.
- In our home country, too, the Chinese have been falsely accused of sponsoring Fulani militia attacks, even when all but one of the mining processing facilities already built and being built are Chinese-owned.

When I read some of the investments by Chinese companies, I am marvelled. Some might accuse me of being pro-China, but all I want is for the betterment/prosperity of our people. Chinese companies are willing or plan to build industrial factories in the Warri area, including the port axis. I have never been to that side of the country, but as long as the people there have good jobs because of those investments, I am happy for them. So, why should someone wake up one morning to say China bad, China this when the Chinese are creating jobs? Why should a country be commanded to cancel/stop Chinese investments because another country does not like China's growth? Yet, supporters of the commanding country are happy and cheerful? Should the people in Nasarrawa and environs go hungry?

- Should Iran fall, as we have read in one of the preconditions before this war, Iran would stop selling crude oil to China; thus, further reducing China's oil supplies.
- Then the focus shifts to Southeast Asia, where Malaysia and Singapore would be bullied to stop ships from sailing through the Straits of Malacca. Or the Philippines would be empowered to do some reckless acts. I wonder what supporters of the onslaught against Iran would say when the attacks to China's backyard. Abi are the Chinese also "Islamic terrorists"?

I was one of those who supported the removal of Muammar Gaddafi (my post history is there), foolish me. We know the aftermath of his removal has had on the Sahel region, while those who orchestrated his removal are enjoying in their faraway countries. Before we support certain events, let's ask ourselves questions.

US Treasury Sec Scott Bessent says they are tracking millions of dollars suddenly being wired out of Iran by top regime officials. He promised the senders won't access the money that should be used to rebuild Iran.

Trump has also directed Bessent to cut off all trade ties to Spain, PM retorted country has all necessary resources to contain any impacts.

China oil purchases from Venezuela and Iran are highly discounted due to international sanctions. In total that's 17% of China daily purchases, forcing it to bid at higher prices to cover the shortfall. China is merciless, when their allies are down ,it buys oil from them dirt cheaply. To make it worse it sold them their premium Air Defence System that were taken out within minutes by Hegseth.

The Khamenei wey make Iran dey powerless all these while don die.

This fuulish man refused to acquire the one weapon that scares America and Israel.

He was playing hide and seek with these monsters for a whole 40 years. His mates in North Korea were building nukes while he was playing games.

Now where is he? His people will suffer irrecoverable losses because of his stupidity.

Innocent Iranians will now have to pay for his mistakes with their lives.

⚡Pete Hegseth, the U.S. Secretary of War says that an Israeli airstrike on the Assembly of Experts building in Qom resulted in the Experts being "either dead or missing."

Iran has denied it, saying the building hit wasn't the Assembly building, but the Secretariat, and that no one was there.

Imagine Iranian missiles and drones were not tested in combat conditions in Ukraine?

The would have struggled badly.

This is why I pity China. They're planning to test their weapons during a war.

Even North Korean missiles are battle tested in Ukraine.

I thought you and your kind have been gloating that the US sank Iran's entire naval ships in under 48 hours of the invasion?

So which ships are you now picturing here? Which vessels are manning and blockading the strait of Hormuz?

Just as it was in the early days of the Russia/Ukraine smo, you're all having to cope on blatant propaganda and lies.

And time, as has ever been the case, is going to be the revealer😊. If them born your hegemony well, make US/Israel naval vessels near the Hormuz!

Persia is waiting!

FoolishBoy419:
Guve us proof that Iran wants to build a nuclear weapon. We all know that officially, they don't want it
When Iran starts cooperating with IAEA, then we know they are not building a nuclear weapon. You are not cooperating with a regulatory organisation, yet you want us to believe your actions are not sinister. It's like you not cooperating with NAFDAC and then saying the government is witch hunting you.
