Yes, that's the point they're making. Arguably US citizens are more complicit in the crimes of Israel than Iranians are in the crimes of Russia since Americans have more capacity to choice their leadership.

I understood that, only posted what I did because let's just not say "Iran is a democratic country, like the US". It is not.

Iran has a longer history, obviously, but it’s worth mentioning the US is no longer a democratic country. The congress has effectively delegated its powers to the president. You can’t really come back from that any time soon.

You (or rather the US) can come back from that in the next elections, let's hope it works.

Good, looking at data.

Now search what happened to the Iran's democracy in the 70s and why their redemocratization stopped in the 90s.

Why stop there, let us go another millenium or two into the complete offtopic territory.
