I'm trying my hand at making cartoons with the help of ai please tell me what you think ,:)

Hello Armin. You're my hero. I have a question. please answer. I'm a fan of King Reza Pahlavi. But I listened to John Mearsheimer. He has a theory: --- States are power-maximizers, not just security-seekers. Mearsheimer: Alliances Are Temporary, Power Is Permanent. Israel should never want a powerful Iran, ally or not. The smart move is always to keep potential rivals weak and divided, regardless of their current diplomatic posture. --- I think Prince Reza Pahlavi will be killed by Islamic people or Isreal when the Islamic Republic collapsed. and Iran will go to chaos. Like: Afghanistan, Iraq, Pakistan, Yemen, Somalia, Libya, Syria. John Mearsheimer argues U.S. doesn't want to help Iranian people. U.S. wants to wrack Iran. I hate Islamic Regime of Iran but they don't have any place to go so they will stay and protect the land. Prince Reza Pahlavi and his family will be killed and Iran will go to civil war like Libya. could you give me your opinion?

I said that I had more response to anti-war people today, and I thought I would try to write out my thoughts here. For those who did not see Pahlavi's speech, he said two things that were very profound, and which encapsulate a lot of my disagreement with the anti-war 'bleeding heart' types, both progressive and otherwise. First, he said that liberty is everything and it is worth dying for. He said it much better than I did. Second, he said that in addition to compassion for the victim of oppression, it is necessary to have a righteous hatred of evil. We have lost sight of the concept of a righteous hatred and enmity, lost in a puddle of 'tolerance.' We have lost sight of both of these things in the West, perhaps because, since WWII, there has been no serious threat to freedom* that we have had to face. And more and more, the gospel of irresponsibility has taken hold, the idea that no one is responsible for doing bad things, that it is society's fault, and so on. It has made it very hard for people in the West to say 'No, this person is evil. I hope they may reform, but in the meantime, they are my enemy, and not just my enemy, but someone we can and should fight.' Up until fairly recently, all civilizations, even those of the Enlightenment, have acknowledged that some people are such a danger that they must either be completely rendered harmless or they must be fought and killed. CS Lewis wrote an excellent essay called 'Why I am not a Pacifist.' And I encourage everyone to go read it regardless of your religious beliefs, because his argument is mostly non religious. It is a brilliant summary of why pacifism is a frankly dumb and unethical position. I will try to summarize one of his best points here. Suppose you see two people drowning. How do you pick between them in terms of prioritizing who to save first? Maybe just take the one that is more likely to be saved? But what if of the two people, A and B, person B was responsible for getting them lost in the water? Shouldn't you prioritize saving A?

Any retard saying the joint military operations were a mistake because there was no imminent threat is completely blind to reality. If the threat is imminent, you are already too late. That is the entire point. You take action before an expansionist regime builds a nuclear bomb, not when they are holding the global economy hostage. We had undeniable evidence they were rapidly moving toward becoming a nuclear power. If we just sit back and let them control the whole region, the destruction will be a thousand times worse. Do you really think they would not choke off the global energy supply once they had an atomic bomb? Once nobody could do regime change on them ever again? We are dealing with a regime that openly wants world domination, and you actually think they are going to show us mercy just because we did not attack them first? Send this to anyone repeating this nonsense.

What right do U.S and Israel have to bomb universities? How's that supposed to help the people overthrow the regime?
