First of all: It’s not clear that they want nukes. Like, seriously, they have been accused of almost having nukes for thirty years, it’s much more plausible at this point that they are much more interested in the ability to acquire them quickly in case they need them.
But even then: It makes no sense for them to use them aggressively, but it makes an unbelievable amount of sense for them to want them for defensive purposes. Like: They have time and time suffered from western interference, including the extremely bloody Iran-Iraq-war and have a hostile, nazi-run rouge state running a genocide and storing nukes without NPT-approval that is receiving unlimited support from the US in their vicinity.
The fact of the matter is that there is no country on earth that is as justified in pursuing a nuclear deterrent on earth as Iran.
And none of that changes anything about the government being made up from horrible tyrants that are almost as bad (but definitely not actually as bad, let alone worse!) as the one in Israel. They absolutely should be overthrown, but that’s not the job for the genocidal nazis in Israel.
Tell me you haven’t read the manga without telling me you haven’t read the manga by asking that question…
Yes, it applies to her, like a hundred times over! Coming from someone who disagrees with ACAB. But that woman is just flat out a murderous criminal. The animes really play it down, but
The Ghost in the Shell (original manga)
She literally ends up taking a hostage with the plan of faking her own death in the following hostage rescue to escape murder charges after comparing her work killing some guy (who didn’t really do anything besides sitting on a chair) that she spotted a mere second earlier (her correction to the prosecutor: “0.82 seconds”) to that of a “waste treatment plant” in trial.
Her biggest smile in the entire manga is in the recollection of when she was setting things up so that a known terrorist will shoot his own underage son through a door. (“The kid was like sixteen, but he was bragging about how he killed two of our men.”)
