It's weird to put two guys committing a genocide against one guy enforcing blue laws.
Especially when the first two guys have killed more Iranians over the weekend than the third has killed during his entire tenure in office.
Men are not emotional like women, they keep it cool, they are rational, inteligent, direct. Also the older they get the wiser they become. 80 years old is prime age for leadership and these men in particular are peak strong and capable leaders. /s
Soooo as someone who’s never been Christian, who is Abraham and are there gods of other people?
Abraham was a schizophrenic born in Iraq who believed in only one god. His ideas spawned Judaism. That's the old testament. The first successful sequel was the new testament which introduced Jesus, which is Christianity. Then Muhammed came along with Islam which is based off Christianity.
Since then the fandom's have been squabbling on-off causing the deaths of millions.

You wish
I do. Many things. Can you be a bit more specific? 🤔
So the answer is to aggressively prevent any nationalist authoritarian from getting power. Got it.
This is an ideological conflict. The ordinary citizens will be the ones paying the price for this because people responsible for the conflict will keep escalating it.
Rabindranath Tagore really proved to be a prophet when he called a 'nation' to be a political(in this case, there is no distinction between religious and political) and economic machinery that doesn't care for the individual.
I'd politely disagree - it does not appear to be ideological at all. All of these are authoritarian overlords fighting over their own power.
Perhaps yes. But, they also have their own ideological stances. For Trump, it might be some mix of neoliberalism and fundamentalist christianity.
For the Israel dude, it is Zionism (whatever the heck that is), presumably. I don't know much about it.
For the Iran dude, it is Islam that's more conservative. I don't know how far he leans to that side.
It is really hard to discern, to me, if they are doing this for ideological reasons or authoritarian reasons. Or Is there any difference between the two? I don't know, to be honest.
