There’s a battle between US imperialism and opposing forces and the US is taking a massive W in both Venezuela and Cuba because Leftists international solidarity is apparently “idealism” these days. Even in Palestine both China And Russia have
Only Iran is stepping up to the plate.
I guess asking for anything more than Zohran Mamdani DSA members but real international solidarity is too idealistic now.
Maybe in the bubble you live in that’s the case. This is very much standard usage by Marxists to criticize idealists who consistently fail to do actual material analysis of the world.
The only reason Iran is able to step up to the plate is because of material support from Russia and China. I guess actually being able to understand how things are interconnected is too much to ask here.
Iran engaging in international solidarity at massive risk to themselves is because of how epic and based Russia and China are apparently. So where’s that international solidarity for Cuba? Or is Cuba implementing their new reforms for reasons entirely unrelated to the US blockade?
Once again, since you keep ignoring the elephant in the room, the only reason Iran is able to engage in international solidarity is because of the solidarity Russia and China have with Iran providing them with weapons, technology, economic aid, and diplomatic support. Evidently the concept of any support outside direct military action is just too difficult for you to comprehend.
Similarly, the whole context for this thread is China providing Cuba with the material means to deal with the energy crisis. But hey, why engage with reality when you can just confidently spew idealist nonsense. Once you’ve done better then you get the right to screech, but until then kindly sit the fuck down.

In exchange for oil and other goods and to improve their own geopolitical position. Not out of international solidarity.
Let’s change the question because you don’t seem to understand it: Why is Iran helping Palestine?
The fact that it’s not pure altruism isn’t the gotcha you seem to think it is. And of course, Iran isn’t helping Palestine out of pure altruism either. Why do you think Iran just sat by while the genocide was happening for over a year. They could’ve closed Hormuz any time. The reason they are taking action now is because they’re being threatened by the empire and its outpost in Israel. Iran is also trying to improve its position in the region. It’s frankly incredible that you don’t understand this.
If Iran would want to improve its position they would abandon Palestine and Lebanon. Iran is not even on the Greater Israel map they are completely safe. Iran could get rid of its sanctions simply by abandoning international solidarity and recognize Israel and become UAE2.0
Iran has supported Palestine through weapons for Hamas, Hezbollah and the Houthis. That’s why Israel attacked Iran. And why the US is not attacking China over Cuba. China And Russia aren’t even breaking a simple oil blockade let alone supply it weapons USSR style.
Iran is closing Hormuz over Palestine and Lebanon. If they promised to stop supporting the resistance and recognize Israel the bombing would stop instantly and they would get Hormuz too.
Iran’s leader gave his life for international solidarity. Iran had prepared for a NATO ground invasion for decades for supporting Palestine. With or without minor amounts of external support.

Iran is able to step up to the plate because they have the balls and international solidarity with Palestinians to so.
If you genuinely don’t understand that Iran is only able to step up because of support from Russia and China, what else is there to say really.
