Sugarman, you're out of your gourd
What difference does it make if I elect to post my equally anonymous internet handle? That's a piddling point and you know it.
Your problem is that your whole response to this issue is so bound up with your Jewish identity that you cannot for the life you begin to understand why anyone else would hold a different opinion. Honestly, you sound insane when you're talking about this. You really do. Your boilerplate response to everything is to point to a couple of attacks that happened years ago. In response you want us all to see the citizens comprising a state that may have played a role in said attacks as a monolithic block uniformly bent on our destruction. That, my friend, is fucking insane. I don't believe it for an instant. I believe the Iranians are just like any other people. I believe they are self-interested, and rationally use whatever tools are available to them to maximize their position in the world. Tell me, what nation hasn't committed heinous, murderous acts in its past? I would love to know, because I cannot think of a one. Yet, because they are Muslims, they cannot be reformed in your eyes, they can only be surrounded and contained.
You know who you sound like? Like the early Apartheid leaders who told So. African whites that a sea of black people were about to descend on them and tear them to bits unless they were put under heel. Buenos Aires is your own personal Isandlwana, and your bogeymen are only different because they are brown rather than black. In fact, if anything, you have even less cause for fear, as your people have been living amongst what seems to be your mortal enemies for eons. Cyrus, as I recall, was one of the greatest patrons the Jewish people ever had.
