Okay, all of the usual propaganda aside... How does that even begin to make any sense?
Aren't Americans already supposed to be free? The freeest on the planet even? And if not, what's Iran got to do with that? What could Iran possibly do to take away Americans' freedom? And how is bombing their civilians and civilian infrastructure going to help with that?
I have so many questions here. Have I fallen for the bait and wasted about 210 seconds of my life trying to make some sense of this?
The claim I've seen, and maybe it has been walked back, is that Iran has developed ballistic missiles capable of reaching the mainland US and is close to creating a nuclear weapon, presumably to put on such a missile. There's been no evidence shown of such missiles or their launch sites. The evidence of the nuclear weapon is the same as the last so many times.
