    US: “You can’t enrich uranium!”

    Iran: “We reluctantly agree to this term.”

    US: Bombs Iran anyway

    We live in a clown country 🤡

      That’s not entirely what happened. Though you do live in a clown country.

      After US withdrew from the Iran nuclear deal, Iran did continue to still follow the terms for quite a while in hopes that the US would once again rejoin (presumably).

      Then the US assasinated an Iranian general or major, could be mistaken. Either way, they assasinated someone. Iran, shockingly, wasn’t all too impressed and quite upset about the whole ordeal, so they said fuck it… if that’s how you wanna play, we’re gonna do whatever we want.

      And then now, you have US and Israel both striking Iran, with the justification that Iran was “about to strike us first”.

        Got a good chuckle out of me. Credit where credit is due, right?

      I would link the meme of Kim Jung Un telling his daughter this is why we have nuclear weapons, but I didn’t save it.

      US: “Oh fuck, we were hoping for more resistance, it’s only a cover for stealing your oil.”
