No middle east does not have "a 3 thousand year track record of being a mess". Imperialism though has a 300 years track record of messing the middle east up. You're racist.
> You're racist
stfu man, i can't even argue with you if you won't operate with a bare minimum of good faith.
In Iran specifically, Allies caused 2 great famines in Iran(1917-1919, 1942-1943); Reza Shah was deposed in 1941 by the allies; democratically elected Prime Minister Mohammad Mosaddegh was overthrown in 1953 by CIA/MI6; Germany built Iraq's chemical weapon program and to prevent an Iranian victory, the United States supported the Iraqi army in their use of chemical weapons.
How can operate I with a bare minimum of good faith with someone who denies oppression and injustice? You're just being called out.
