The folks who dedicate their lives to helping the unfortunate will always assume that there is good in others, so they’ll, in good faith, make concessions of peace with the otherwise belligerent and rapacious who contribute to the misfortunes of the world. Sadly, as history has shown time and time again, these predators, like the “gusanos” and maggots they are, they require suffering, death, and destruction of anyone of their choosing so long as it means some form of personal gain for them. They require death and misery in order to sustain their unsustainable ambitions. The only path free from this tyranny for the whole of humankind is to eradicate this pestilence in its entirety, by any and all means.
I would say, not always. I feel like most of the success AES right now were created by people that were like this, but also who understood that there are other who fundamentally, are evil. That will always seek to hurt you if they can, t take advantage, to violate. One has to really watch the enemy, and understand it. See how cruel it is. It’s why I cannot stand when I see leftists that try to humanize billionaires and their fascist bootlickers. To feel any form of empathy towards them. This is a flaw. It is weakness. They WILL take advantage of it to hurt you if they can.
Or maybe the problem is they were under duress and had to make a judgment call on what might help their people and made the wrong one. Not that they are completely naive to the cruelty of the empire. There are times in history where strategic retreat worked, so it would not be odd to think it could have bought them more time. The armchair quarterbacking on the fate of a people is easy to do in hindsight, but it’s not so easy to make that call in the moment.
I think Aisha Gaddafi is 100% correct for this specific situation. Iran has no reason to back down and every reason to set the conclusion of this own their terms, so much as they are able. Meanwhile, over in Venezuela, Delcy Rodriguez is having to make a different sort of calculus due to not having the military strength that Iran does, nor sufficient help from other countries in the region.
