>Those feel like very distinct categories.

They aren't. In the sense that, while a lot of Iranians are exasperated with their clerical elite under normal conditions and abscence of external threats, even domestic regime opponents tend to be very allergic to having their sovereignty destroyed by the US. Iraq should have been a lesson in that regard ("they'll greet us as liberators"), apparently it was not.

They do seem distinct. The ones who are Iranian are not the ones who support the Iranian regime. It's the anti-Israeli groups who support Iran's nuclear aspirations. Similarly, the Israeli friends are also not in support with Israel's actions.

I'm positive there's some selection bias here - ultra-nationalists don't hang out with other races.

But it goes with what we've been saying about bloodlust and dehumanization. The most excited ones are the ones who don't live anywhere near there.

I'm more scared of the only country that has ever used nuclear weapons than I am of Iran
