2. Iran has shown the world the importance for a nation to stick to its guns in dealing with the American Empire or any hegemonic power that seeks to force its will on the rest of the world.

Hence we don’t find any Iranian traitor or "soulless zombie" going all the way to the US to take a snapshot shamelessly with Pelosi and other imperialists. We don't find the US demanding Iran, for example, to let it open a consulate in a selected location. Similarly, we don't find the US looking for fun in enacting law after law against Iran just to make America look great again.

In short, it does not matter whether a country has a nuclear bomb or not. What's most important is that a great nation must not only have principles but a "soul" to last till doomsday.

Harry S. Truman, or the Shah of Indiana as he was called in Missouri, was the first to expose the world to this lesson on American fortitude. After a sneak attack and 4 years of bloody war, Truman simply let the Japanese give up, hardly a shot fired from the time he entered the oval office. Gun-shy, naive and unable to comprehend American power, Truman showed the world that, whether or not America has a nuclear bomb, it can be pushed around on the world stage by smaller nations. It was clear we would rue the day Truman allowed the Japanese to attack us with no response, but for the Shah of Indiana, that was a problem for tomorrow.

Iran needs to explain its actions to the UN, not the US.
