It's not their fault. They are fed garbage by their schools, their government, their TV's, their parents and neighbors. How can you blame people for being ignorant when they are raised in an ignorant society?
If NATO countries are ignorant then what does that make Iran?

Sorry, I should have been more clear. Ignorant of the rest of the world, not just their own little corner.

Just saying.

It makes Iran a country who just wants to be left alone. It also makes Iran a country who has been constantly demonized over the last several decades. As Superman said, it's not your fault, it's the ignorant society that you were raised in that is to blame. You're not off the hook though since this isn't an excuse. I was raised in the same ignorant society and I can see through these lies since a very young age.
Lay off the tap water is my first recommendation. Or maybe do your own research on Iran instead of believing everything the media spoon feeds you.

Im an American. Am I ignorant about the rest of the world? Or are all of your opinions of Americans based on episodes of Jersey Shore or the Kardashians?
Iran has demonized itself. It has only itself to thank for its incredible appalling Human rights abuses and anybody that says the United States, or Great Britain, or Canada, or Israel has Human rights issues on par with countries like Syria and Iran and North Korea and Pakistan is a damn liar and/or a brainwashed hypocrite. I dont personally care that you think these countries have a "right" to exist. When you murder your own citizens based on their sexual orientation or their religious or political ideology then you have lost all right to govern in the 21st century. This isnt a joke. Peoples lives arent a joke. And you, who thinks youre anti-war, is more for the angst and pain of our species then the Mullahs that hold power in the Islamic Republic of Iran.

You're not making any sense, there was no hate in the OP's post. This is exactly what I mean, the minute someone posts a thread that highlights the Jingoists on ATS the thread is flooded with imperialistic nationalistic pride in the form of American Exceptionalism.
It's as predictable as the sunrise.

Right. It is their values, their beliefs, their mores, their religion, their way of life. Just because they don't conform to your "western ideals" does not mean that we have any right to impose our beliefs on them! What are you doing to "correct" the situation if you believe that people that think Iran should be left alone are worse than the "Mullahs that hold power in the Islamic Republic of Iran"?
Originally posted by againuntodustFor one, I see just the opposite. Most members here are critical of the US and point out that Islam is not the enemy.
Second, the thread you linked and said is closed, is not closed.
Youre an ignoranus if you say that everybody that lives in Iran shares the same beliefs in the origin of our universe as Shia Muslims.
You are a hypocrite if you say that you are against a government where you wont be executed by that government for criticizing that very same government and think that in a country like Iran, where opposition to the government means you will be publicly executed for that, is a good thing.

I normally don't respond to your posts due to the blatant twist you put on things. My pity goes out to the members who read your posts and believe what you type. You say the hate is one sided, yet you're unable to provide one hateful statement.
You people are a real piece of work...there is no hate in this thread, just some really well thought out opinions that seem to hit really close to home for some people.
Next time you plan on making such a bold claim, take it up another level and actually copy and paste some of these make believe hateful statements you speak of.

Its not pro US anti Islamic. It's the way you pull off your posts. They're idiotic and filled with racial hate. Im not saying you're an idiot.. I'm saying that what you put in your OPs are full of hatred. We can do without that here on ATS.
If your discussions were half way civil, there would be no problem.
The last post you made was terribly void of any logic. Remember.. Deny ignorance. The information you put up, as one responder put it, was throwing rocks in a glass house. If you understand that mataphore, then you would get the jist of it.
You obviously did not read the post.

What you call well thought out opinions, others would see as hateful rhetoric.
I'll take your suggestions under advisement.
TextJust in case you're not aware of it people can be against actions of a terrorist government without actually hating the people of that country.
No, not a slip. A deliberate accusation that you are both ignorant and an anus.
And you are a biased anti-American hating hypocrite that says you love freedom but yet you think societys that suppress free speech and free thought by killing those that think differently then the government should somehow build up huge armies and WMD for preparation with war with us, when they clearly and obviously make no secret that they want to wipe us out.
Not defeat the U.S. They want to wipe us out.
Yes, lets just let them build bombs, isolate ourselves, and everything that the second World War was fought for, i.e. a secular right to exist, you can kiss it goodbye. Thanks to far left liberals like you who would rather appease these hideous war criminals then deal with them.

Oh good, we are acting like adults here and debating a topic rather than going down the path of kindergarten children.
Please point out my ignorance, with sources or something besides your infantile "You're wrong, I'm right" attitude.

I am!??!? The only people I hate, and I have stated it before, are war-mongers. So if you are self identifying yourself as that, then yes, I hate you. Are you trying to tell me that the US or any country for that matter doesn't suppress free speech? Does the US have a massive army that is bankrupting its country? Does the US have WMD? Where is your proof that Iran does? The IAEA says they don't, your Secretary of Defense says they don't, Iran says the don't and the ISIS says they don't. Is this just conjecture on your part? I am going to assume that you have sources as you are arguing this point quite feverishly.

Don't listen to the other kids in school who in turn listen to their scared parents. Do some critical thinking and research and you will see what other people see. Please source where Iran wants to wipe out the US.

I don't agree with them having nukes either, but, how can any country with nuclear weapons tell another country not to have them? No country has used them besides the US thus far. PS- the only reason you entered the second world war was to press sanctions against Japan until it felt it had no choice but to attack the US...sound familiar? I would say Iran is facing the provocations set against it quite well in not attacking first.
