It slays me they are calling it Iran's retaliatory attack on Israel. Iran has been using Hezbollah and Hamas to fight a proxy war with Iran. Israel's attack on the Iranian consulate in Syria was a retaliatory attack against Iran.
I have an employee from Iran. He was mad that the USA/ "Biden" agreed last year to unfreeze the 6 billion dollars to Iran. He said that just funds Hamas and terrorism. He says the leaders are all corrupt and make life miserable for the people.
We have not talked about Israel in specific. Another employee who used to work for me, now works at our other hotel, is from Iraq. Both are US citizens. I would love the three of us to sit down so I could hear both points of view of America and their countries and the unrest, how they view each other's country and the history they both lived through
The one from Iraq is against Biden... hates Newsom, he is a Chaldean Christian. Most of his family got out of Iraq. They live all over the world. Several cousins are here in the USA.
The one from Iran ironically has a degree in environmental studies and tourism. He was kind of a big deal in Iran's tourism in the late 1990's to mid 2016's. I had no idea there was tourism in a country that I have always thought of as so violent - but it is regional, Muslim people visit, not people from America. He likes Kamal Harris, told me he thought she would be a better president than Biden. I said I don't think intellectually she is very smart. Then I told him how Kamala Harris's career was advanced by Willy Brown, who she had an affair with. That he was former San Francisco Mayor and State Assembly Speaker. He gave her two political appointments that launched her political career. He was 60, she was 29 ... boy did his eyes get wide. I told him look it up. That "history" in California is NEVER reported on here.
Interesting how the world is getting smaller, we are all interrelated..
