Indeed they are....Just giving back a bit of your own medicine.

You are free to deny the fact that Iran was not part of the axis. Sure the SS invaded Hungary, Poland and other places, collaborated with kozaks but they never did invade Iran nor asked for their jews. You are free to deny that. Your choice.....

Do you still beat your wife?

Such statements don’t hold any water and is based on wishy washy hypothesis..... You can sit here and come up with ifs and buts. It doesn’t really matter. ’History is written by the victors’ If it wasn’t for allied forces you would be singing “Deutschland ist über alles”....Something as you alluded your uncle would have done...

I know about Howitzers and the special tanks he deployed but then again the russian terrain was no match for Germans. History shows Germans were defeated in Russia.

The problem as was advised by Hitler’s general was that the three pronged invasion of Russia through Stalingrad, Leningrad and Ukraine was wrong and will result in heavy defeat. The Nazi Germany then undermined how vast Russia is and the troops paid a heavy price in the myd and cold. Something they were not used to...

Yes....Iran does mean the land of Aryan and again in the Holocaust Memorial it states that Reza Shah has put forth the case of jews assimiliated into Iran. So that effectively means that jews are Aryans but not by the same definition as then Nazi Germany!

Semantics.....He was a Nazi that EXTERMINATED JEWS.....

Exactly! But didn’t happen....tin foil hat...

So fucking what they changed the name to Persia? He was the king of Imperial Iran. He can do whatever he wants to serve the interest of his country like any other appointed monarchy. I change your name to Doggy....Does that make you a wife beater?

You are making too many assumptions with no basis....like a tin foil man connecting the dots to make a conspiracy theory. Here’s what you said ”If Rommel could drag victory from italians”....bla bla bla. Well he didn’t. Now this is what I have for you. YOUR uncle could have served with british forces but instead he was serving in SS in Bosnia. Oh well this actuslly happened....Duh

Don’t be daft.....Reza Shah did not admire Nazi Germany nor their ideology! The article I have posted is from Holocaust memorial and it says he despised Hitler’s ideology. For that ideology you need to look closer to home in Bosnia where jews were slaughtered....You would know with an uncle who served in SS.

.....no kidding....And I thought you were living in Mercury....Very genuine. Not! But hold on! Whilst you are on that note neither were Iranians murdering jews. In fact as the article I have posted says jews were assimiliated into Iranians...

Glad that you admit even with your own link that it was indeed operation countenance as I had previously stated... What your link fails to show is that since the invasion Iran took a hostile approach towards the Third Reich and the Hitler was carrying on with the programme of extermination of jews... Your selective argument fails to show the dynamics of those relationships at WW2! Here is an excerpt from an article from the holocaust museum. Iranian Jews ruled by Reza Shah and later his son, Muhammad Reza Pahlavi, enjoyed many rights and freedoms that they had not previously experienced, including relative cultural and religious autonomy, increased economic opportunities, and significant political rights. Jews also benefitted from the Pahlavi tilt towards a more secular domestic policy. The Iranian government informed the Germans that it considered Iranian Jews to be fully assimilated Iranians And the article continues.... Reza Shah declared Iran neutral at the start of World War II. He feared both Soviet and British ambitions in his country and despite the benefits of economic relations with Germany, he considered Germany to be too committed to its program of race-based expansion and ideology. https://encyclopedia.ushmm.org/content/en/article/iran-during-world-war-ii

There are historical facts showing Iran’s neutrality during WWII. I don’t understand why you are questioning neutrality of Iran, where jews always existed since Achaemenid empires.... The british interest in operation countenance was to protect the oil fields in southern Iran against the Nazis, which is why the invasion took place from the south and Russians from the North. Iran wasn’t very keen (and quite understandably) to warm up to Russians, who were reluctant to leave the country and only by the persuasion of the UN in later years they left....

Old Reza Shah took a neutral stance against the Nazis during world war II unlike some other countries (you know very well) who despised jews.....Bosnia was one them where your uncle served..... Operation Barbarossa was to cut off the supply lines of the Nazis through caucasus. Look up ooeration countenance for Persian corridor by Nazis....

Trouble with Trump is that he uses his power as a president for his personal gain. That’s a conflict of interest.... If/ when the house of senate is taken by democrats there will be alot more scrutiny over Muller’s case and Trump’s business dealings with Russia.

Good to see the Armenian genocide is recognised by some and not brushed under the carpet....

Deutsche Bank was one of them that loaned money to Trump

This is all about money and trade. Trump just wanted a bigger pie in the Iran nuclear deal that European companies were already exposed to and enjoying lucrative deals. With that deal this wasn’t possible. Regardless, with or without the regime this is the harsh reality unfortunately. Trump doesn't care about the plight of Iranians as mich as he does for that share of the bigger pie.......Iranians cannot rely on him to remove this tyrannical regime. The change comes from within.

If anything, I would argue that eliminating the murderous mullah regime occupying Iran will allow for a transition and reverse the trends of “brain drain” letting the highly qualified leave the country. That kurdish guy born in Iran that won the highest price in mathematics didn’t have much opportunity inside Iran. Yet he achieved great things moving abroad.... Who knows....Maybe a more populist government in Iran will help other Iranian immigrants to move back to their home country and rebuild the economy.

It is quite a subjective rule in this regard. However, for a referee that didn’t notice it was a penalty and had to look at VAR several times to convince himself perhaps he shouldn’t have awarded the penalty IMO.

One own goal one penalty... On the other hand a superb kick by Croatia. I like Croatia coming back...

What a goal by Croatia!!!! GOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

Last one yes. This one is about who will take the third place. Well we already know...
