Your comment breaks my heart, and I hate what my country is doing to Iran. Reactionaries started the problems in 1953, and they're perpetuating and multiplying it today. Unfortunately for those of us who wish to appeal to the better natures of the right wing in the USA that support these sanctions, the cruelty is the point: https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2018/10/the-cruelt...

Note: the US has placed economic sanctions against Iran every single day for the last four decades - regardless of who was US president, or which party was in power.

You voted for the right wing last time you voted (I know because there are no one else to vote for). The Democrats are also right-wing, anti-Iran, pro-Israel, etc.
