It would rule so much if the US had put in all this effort to fuck with Iran only to have it become a socialist state after all and ally with China.
Would actually hope for that if I didn’t know that the Islamists had so effectively liquidated the Communist movement.
Err, kinda. Iran is still as aligned against America and with its rivals as if it were a socialist nation. But while the US decided at some point that they value Iran more as an MIC-justifying bogeyman than a friend (them ripping up the Iran Deal), it’s coming back to bite them in the ass with the rise of the opposing pole.
Then again, maybe we’re ascribing too much rational thought to the American ruling class, since it’s apparent that even they don’t know what the fuck they want.
They are allied with China and Russia currently already, or rather on extremely friendly and military-cooperative terms. America’s worst fear of all their victims combining into a solid bloc against them instead of separate, isolated nations is coming to pass already. America bungled it massively by attacking China and Russia at the same time with hybrid war, while also destroying the Iran deal. They should have picked one or two of them to destroy at a time while cozying up to the others, but it seems the imperialist ideologues at the wheel have no restraint
