> “Trump: “They’re allowed to use roadside bombs and blow up our people, and we’re not allowed to touch their cultural sites?” he said. “It doesn’t work that way.”
Trump knows what he is doing. Cultural sites used as human shields for regime leaders will not work.

The Iranian people are NOT stupid. They are actually much smarter than most realize. They know exactly what Trump is saying.
They know Trump is setting a conditional “IF - THEN” the American retaliation will take out the regime leaders even is they hide in a cherished cultural site.
The response of the Iranian people to their hated regime will be to “Stop the attacks, the terrorism!” “You are inviting destruction of our ancient Persian culture!”
The Iranian people know if regime criminals are killed while hiding in cultural sites, the blame goes to the regime, not to America because America is defending itself and its people.
If the Iranian People rise up and overthrow the terrorist dictators, there ancient culture will be safe.
Trump is brilliant.
“The Iranian people are NOT stupid. They are actually much smarter than most realize.”
I think the majority of people do realize how intelligent Iranians are. This has nothing to do with intelligence - it’s visceral.
“They know exactly what Trump is saying.”
I showed you on twitter that they don’t. You show me where they do. btw - there are many other Iranian blogs & internet sites condemning Trump for saying it.
Those cultural sites mean much more to them than you realize. Since 1979, those are visual remains of their identity. And the regime has destroyed & neglected ancient sights because of that.
The average age in Iran is 31. Those people don’t know life without the regime so they can’t remember what life was like. And they’re raising children who don’t know Iran without the regime.
I know, and the Iranian people know, that the regime uses civilians & civilian buildings as shields. If cultural sites have to be destroyed to bring down the regime, they don’t want outsiders doing it, they’ll do it themselves. I can’t imagine it would ever be a necessity to destroy them.
Let’s hope it never comes to that.
