Do you deny that the regime that runs Iran embraces Shia Islam? Or do you deny that Shia Islam embraces martyrdom? Let's just say that the factual position for my claim seems stronger than yours. As for which of us is spewing propaganda... I'll let the readers judge.

'but Israel' isn't a response on the points I raised other than to say you don't actually care about apartheid regimes/points, they are just convenient talking points for you to justify your position.
No offence, but you were banging on about the “Shia apartheid regime” and implied (EDIT: spelling) they are a minority when 95% of Iranians are Shia. There is more apartheid in Israel than Iran. As for theocratic governments, the region is full of them and the biggest (Saudi Arabia) are supported by the US despite their similar practices of theocratic oppression to the Iranian regime (probably more so in SA than Iran…
You are you saying you are OK with Saudi Arabia's behavior then? That is the hypocritical handwringing is am pointing out. The hypocritical people who talked out against Saudi Arabia, against religious favoritism/laws in Israel, people who in the past criticized religion like Rushdie dared to but Iran attempted to murder him for. But things those people now overlook and call Iran their 'ally' in alignment with them.
Is Saudi Arabia good? If not, then how is Iran being the same good? That you can't see I was pointing out the hypocrisy of Iran supporters with my points is wild. They are all things they claim to care about, and would not be accepting of from other nations, but because they like that Iran has attacked the USA/Israel since 1979 they hand waive away as fine. My entire life I was raised with Iranians chanting for death to me as an American (resultantly fundamentally shaping my opinion of Islam), and that policy is what Iranian supporters say supersedes all bad acts Iran commits (excusing Irans regime raping/murdering young girls for not wearing hats, executing by regime numbers 3,000 people on the street over two days, repressive religious theocracy, murder contracts on people like Rushdie who speak negatively about religion).

OK, but what about the points a rando on HN brought up? The Iraqi PMF posted videos of their arrival and their meeting and stating their commitment to the IRGC, so not propaganda. The IRGC has gone on state TV talking about recruiting 12 year olds, so not propaganda. HRW has documented the murder of women from violating dress code, so not proganda. The IRGC has stated that 3000 Iranian protesters will murdered by the…
Yeah and Saddam Hussein had WMD and unplugged incubators (something Israel actually did), and there were 40 beheaded babies and mass rapes, and Iran murdered 6 million protesters... You'd have to be a complete fool to believe Zionist lies.

I said the US had the largest nuclear program and I was right. I even provided a source. You are also breaking site guidelines, badly.
'which car collection is larger, the one with less more expensive cars, or the one with more cars'.
See how that works. The one with more of the 'thing' is the larger. The fact one nation gets more bang for their dollar doesn't change how numbers work.

Yes, Shia Islam does not "embrace martyrdom" in that they do not want to live. I think they handle us murdering them en mass with the utmost grace, maybe that's where you are confused?
They may want to live, but at least some of them are much more willing to die - much more willing to choose to die - than most leaders of most countries.

And again redirecting and not addressing. Seem more like you are the one interested in spreading propaganda than having a HN discussion.

I'm completely uninterested in indulging Zionist propaganda. Never again will I take information from any Zionist source. I think I've cited very valid reasons as to why that is.
You haven't actually posted anything of substance why you won't engage just vague 'I'm not willing to engage discussion even though I want to post on this subject on HN over and over'.
