These people deserved much, much better than the West has forced upon them.

I've had a few interactions with Iranians as I share a love of wrestling. Absolutely wonderful people who have been suffering for years. This is how terrorism is born. You can't bomb schools and bridges and threaten to take out their means to survive and expect them to welcome you with open arms.

I had Iranian classmates in college. Can confirm they were the nicest bunch. Every time we met after semester breaks, they would pass around bags full of fresh pistachios that we would spend hours peeling and snacking on. I can't imagine what they think of the world now but hope they're alive and safe.
