    It would be very odd if the US or Israel did it, because this started when Iran wanted to stop communications among citizens who were protesting the government.

    TL;DR, yes. It was Iran. It began before the attacks on Iran (back when it was Iran attacking its own people)

        Iran’s government has done plenty to deserve those sanctions. War is wrong no matter which side does it, and Iran is very guilty.

            saddly nobody has found a better option. Iran has had particularly evil leaders for decades. (Why is interesting history itself - but not relavant to today)

                Or you can make war and kill innocents. Or you can turn your back and watch them kill innocents.

                there are other variations, but I have yet to see an option that isn’t awful.

                    I don’t have a choice. Either you defend Iran for funding everyone who wants to kill the Jews, or you defend the US and Israel for attacking Iran. There is no middle ground, either way you are defending genocidal maniacs. I hate both options.

        Sure, and Iran isn’t under a regime now, right? They shut down the internet because they didn’t like what was said over it.
