German news has this beat, they're patting themselves on the back for technically opposing the actions of Israel and the US (not enough to not let the US use military bases in Germany, of course), while at the same time arguing the American genocidal war makes Iran the evil regime for not caring enough about its people suffering and dying to surrender madeline-deadpan

It was Tagesschau, talking to a "political expert". Take a look at how often they call Iran a spooky theocracy word in just a few paragraphs. "The regime is a radical theocracy" and Trump's plans are failing because he does not understand how little they care about their people (lol), this stuff is just evil and a clear way of manufacturing consent for US violence, even if they can't outright support the US fully

"Sie sind bereit, in Kauf zu nehmen, dass die iranische Bevölkerung leidet. Hauptsache, ihre Machtkonstruktion wird erhalten." (They are prepared to accept the suffering of the Iranian population. The main thing is to maintain their power structure.)
