“I want the Iranians to know that if I'm the president, we will attack Iran. In the next 10 years, during which they might foolishly consider launching an attack on Israel, we would be able to totally obliterate them.” - Hillary Clinton

I remember this Hillary Clinton quote when people say we would have been safer with her as president. Here, she casually threatens nuclear annihilation of an entire nation to protect their neocolonial project in the Middle East.

Hillary Clinton, like all other neocons, knew full well that Iran was not developing nukes, and also knew that Iran’s measures against Israel were retaliatory. This genocidal rhetoric was meant to appease AIPAC and other Zionist donors during her campaign.

It would take decades for Iran to enrich uranium to the point where they can make weapons. And the US war machine has been accusing Iran of building one all those years despite Iran’s vehement denials and willingness to be transparent.

American citizens who cheer for war against Iran need to learn they will feel the effects of a war of this magnitude at home. Even people with a limited understanding of geopolitics understand Iran is not Iraq. Iran is a regional superpower and can and will hurt America badly.

Last point: 1) Israel is committing acts of war by regularly bombing Iranian and Iranian-allied sites across the Middle East. Iran has not bombed Israel. Israel is the aggressor. No debate.
