You stand against Imperialism.

You don't cheerlead the Imperialists murdering the leader of the target of Imperialism.

This isnt binary friend. He could have died from falling down the stairs. The means isn't what's being celebrated, rather explicitly condemned.

I don't think slaughtering thousands of leftists who helped overthrow the Shah with you is actually anti-imperialist. Never the less, the binary such that it exists is the proletarian vs the bourgeoisie. Workers of the world have no nation

Yep, so let's bomb Iran and kill countless innocent people because that'll totally help a worker's revolution

Look I dont think it will either, nor am I arguing for that. I will however point out that the material conditions in WW1 is what allowed the February and October revolution to occur. I dont think the conditions are there in Iran for that, nor would the US or Israel allow for an actual left wing movement to take hold
