Israel attacks Iranian nuclear sites
- Thread starter Kool-Aid
- Start date
The American economy is the biggest market and biggest importer of goods by a large margin Export reliant countries like Mexico, Vietnam , India and even china to a lesser extent rely on the US for there economic prosperity
Also there competition mainly the EU and china are growing very slowly (EU share of world economy is 14% ,China is 18% and US is 27% )
It’s crazy how they have managed to be the center of the world economy for over 130 years now

20 years in Afghanistan 
nothing was accomplished carpet bombing Iran wouldn’t accomplish anything other than creating massive migration to Europe and other part of the world …. Airstrake alone wouldn’t change the regime Iran 2.37 times the size of Texas ,3 million soldiers 
on the ground is needed and that isnt guaranteed to change the regime in iran 
peacefully dialogue is the only way to discuss the difference, Iran only need nuclear technology for civilian purposes for electricity and scientific research

On the topic of Iran, the true Persian number is at 50%. Adjacent minorities that were close enough to Persians and/or distinct Iranians that became urbanized underwent Persianization, so around 10% became Persian within the last 100 years. So, Persians in Iran make up about 60%.
The rest are Iranian people who are arguably were, as or more, related to the ancient peoples of the region, genetically. Then you have Turkic, such as Turkmen, Kurds (another Iranic group, really), Azeri (these are Turkic, although there used to be an Iranian Azeri branch in the past before that region was Turkified, which is peculiar), then you have Arabs. The true Arab number is between 4-6 million, which is interesting.
All in all, ethnic Persians are around 60%, the rest are ethnic groups related to the Persians who were Persianized to some extent, and distinct groups. Kurds are technically an Iranian group. A lot of people think Persians are more in the 80-90% of the population in Iran, given the overrepresentation of Persian culture in the West. This is false. As I mentioned earlier, the Pahlavis and even the Qajars Persianized the central culture beyond its historic presence. The Qajars were not Persian, but they had Persian elite culture, although they did not centralize through a Persian precedent by forcing other ethnic groups to become like that. There was no forced Persianization here, more like soft reverberations, from the fact that the elites who were non-Iranic seemed to take on Persian court high culture.
However, the Pahlavis were direct and had implemented a Western-type centralization, nationalistic Persianization, where tribal autonomy and other cultures were undermined and frankly suppressed. They also undermined religion in this Persian cultural "revival." They started to promote Western-type clothing too, and make religious clothing less present. The last Shah tried to glorify Persian continuity by emphasizing pre-Islamic Iran. These people tried to homogenize the land, replace religion with a narrow culture, while in truth wanting to aggressively secularize and mirror the West with Persian aesthetics, basically. This had little connection with the multi-ethnic, religious status of the masses. It is no wonder their reign ended. This was not an organic "modernization" (very loaded term) that came within the culture. No. It was secularization to erase and replace. So although the Shah had many issues with the West (mainly because of the way they moved, which was treacherous), the guy was a wannabe and wanted to become respected in their eyes, and he also mirrored their ways, the same as Kemal Atatürk.
The thing with Khomeini, too, his revolution was not just religious; it was anti-Western imperialism, anti-this erasure and replacing it with inorganic, coerced, and homogenized imposition of foreign ways. These Shia guys were low-key the true nationalists (although that is an incorrect term) as they played and embraced the organic strings that appealed to the masses, the language and lifeways they knew and reflected. These guys were very authentic; they called for a familiar return to "home." This narrative in the West of random Shia guys that came out of isolated mountains suddenly to hold the country, which are strangely western-embracing and entirely secular, waiting for a knight in shining armor, the West, to save them from the dragon lair tower, hostage by fire-breathing Shia clerics, is ridiculous. This mirrors the Orientalist Disney movie where true Iran looks and dresses like this:
Oh no, she is forced to be like this:
Under the suppressive, oppressive, and coercive clutches of this man:
And the white man has to come and save her and conveniently come and take over and inherit her riches while operating the palace she lives in, controlling everything, since he knows what she wants and wants the best for her. After all, Jasmine is a secret hoe that wants to dance sensually in the streets, and the West feels so sad she can't live her truth.
Goofy Oriental cartoon narrative.

That slur would be effective if it weren't for your atrocious grammar but what do you expect from low iq individuals who call themselves libaax lmao
Iran is a divided country. They have Persians azeris, Arab ahwazis, Balochistanis, kurds etc. the Persians have not been kind to their ethnic countrymen.
The same persians themselves are disunited between those who support khara menei and those that don't.
If the regime collapses it will be a free for all
