Calling Iran, one of the world's oldest civilisations, the place where the first bill of human rights was invented, an "artificial state" from a country that's younger than Cher truly reminds you how delusional Israelis are
Former Israeli military intelligence officer:
“[Iran] is artificial state and what will happen with Iran is exactly what happened with the Soviet Union… its fate is to be dismantled, is to be shattered to pieces, as it should have been from the beginning.”
Their goal is to destroy Iran as a nation, they don’t hide it.

I saw a running wren
so odd
we huddle in booths
hoping to change the world
