    Had the US never killed the General there's a good probability many Iranians would still be alive today.

      And if the General hadn't been an influential component in the death of 100s of Americans then the US wouldn't have taken him out.

      How far do you want to go back? The Moorish invasion of southern Europe? The second Persian invasion of Greece?

        Sounds like they had a "four lions" moment to me.

        Scoots still says that Apr 2020 didn't mark the start of a new stock bull market.

          Had the US not supported Khomeni in 1979 with overthrowing Shah, a lot of Iranian, Iraqi, American, British and others would still be alive today.

                Can't see how that would change the notoriously unreliable Boeing 737NG or prevent an uncontained engine failure?

                    Yes it's true, 40,000 Americans were killed last year from gunshot wounds. Awful conflict. And they din't even leave the US!
