Tehran “is the principal source of regional instability and terror,” declare G7 leaders in a joint statement.

The leaders of the G7 countries on Monday issued a joint statement saying Iran should not have nuclear weapons and affirming Israel’s right to defend itself.

“Iran is the principal source of regional instability and terror. We have been consistently clear that Iran can never have a nuclear weapon,” declared the statement, issued by the leaders of the U.S., U.K., France, Germany, Italy, Canada and Japan, along with the EU.

They pledged to “remain vigilant to the implications for international energy markets and stand ready to coordinate, including with like-minded partners, to safeguard market stability.”

    And now I see Westerners talking like Iran is the saviour of the Middle East

    You need to stop putting words in people’s mouths… I have seen nobody here with that view.

    There’s a thing called “nuance.” Rarely, if ever, is anything on the world stage black and white.

    So when I say Israel is worse than Iran, and that Iran has done nothing to me as an American, I’m not saying they’re “the savior of the middle east.” Not even close. Nothing I’ve said implies that in any way.

      I’m not even talking about you, am I? This idea is literally everywhere I look by Westerners who can’t find their own assholes. If calling these twisted points of view out is a problem for you then deal with that.

      That they haven’t done anything to you is irrelevant. Israel hasn’t either. In fact no one has, since America is the global state supreme.
