Wow! Touchy people here today! Someone said earlier that if Iranians ask for help, they hoped the US would help. I realize a country can't ask for help, but I also said, earlier, a country or
group.
I was speaking in generalities, differentiating between people/groups/ organizations/movements/etc... who ask for help, as opposed to people/groups/ organizations/movements/etc... who have their fate decided by outsiders, without ever, ever having asked for any assistance from outsiders.
As to whether the opinion of a group/nation/movement/ect. is relevant, how can it not be when considering aid. Shouldn't all opinions be examined, considered before acting, lest we act out of ignorance?
