#22No matter how absurd the situation becomes, no matter how engaging the videos are, we should never be fooled into thinking Iran are the good guys. This is an unfortunate, ill-conceived war, but that doesn't clean Iran's hands.

I don't think there are many people who believe "Iran are the good guys." Lots of people do understand that bombing civilian infrastructure, killing innocent civilians, and taking actions that were inevitably going to lead Iran to respond with the goal of inflicting wide…
These are all things Ukraine does, "bombing civilian infrastructure, killing innocent civilians, and taking actions that were inevitably going to lead Iran[Russia] to respond with the goal of inflicting widespread economic damage".

The other side has a bunch of criminals that sometimes succeed in rape and the most famous of whom is now dead rather than confess.
Both are bad. One is a disgusting large-scale moral failing in the religion they follow and will continue without limit, the other is a mistake that was ended by the authorities.
