Iranians have dignity. Something American top brass doesn’t even know the meaning of.

You mean the army shooting 40.000 protestors just 2 months ago including 1000+ children, then executed a child that won an international wrestling competition, now accusing everyone else of warcrimes? I think I'll need some reeducation on this concept of "dignity" you speak. Could you explain further?

  Right. Go watch CNN. “Back to the Stone Age” will surely save so many of the lives spared. Come on US media tell us the truth, you want to save people by killing them or to just kill them?

  None of those numbers are verifiable. The opposition has every incentive to lie. And let's not forget there was a lot of armed agitators amongst those protesters. Mike Huckabee let the cat out of the bag with a tweet boasting of how a mossad agent walks beside every protester.

    False. Khamenei himself acknowledged "thousands of people" had been killed during the protests: https://www.thetimes.com/world/middle-east/article/iran-young-protesters-news-nsdztp5t2 https://www.thetimes.com/world/middle-east/article/iran-youn...

      You're confidently replying to a point that I did not make. Protesters were certainly killed, both peaceful ones and agitators. In addition, government claims hundreds of police officers died and places of worship were attacked and burned. My point is there is simply no verifiable numbers because both the opposition, particularly diaspora groups backed by the regimes enemies, and the government have incentives to be inaccurate. So trying to use the death toll as a talking point is not a good idea. It's completely naive to underestimate the role of Mossad and the United States in the unrest. The former through actual Iranian nationals in their employ, and the latter in engineering the dollar shortage that led to the unrest in the first place (Scott Besant bragged about this).

  So how is bombing schools, dessalination plants and hospitals helping Iranians exactly? If that's what the US is really looking for?

  Did you never noticed how there's always a little Arab Spring to provoke whatever regime the US has decided to bomb next?
