    They can’t contain their hate, and must take it out on someone. The most convenient political target. And to think, Iran was as peaceful as ever just a few years ago under the nuclear agreement, but US GOP (and Israel) could not accept it. Now Iran is blatantly helping Hamas and Putin terrorists, with no hope of diplomatic relations. I’m sure this will end well.

      It’s politics 101 when you are unpopular to create an enemy for the public to hate. This distracts the population from at home issues under the guise of coming together in unity.

        Yes. It’s tragic that so many humans are this gullible, even without learning about politics, to not notice obvious patterns, and accept that they’re being manipulated. And then, when an actual threat emerges, not even being able to recognize it.
