If they want to defend Iran--and many have in the past--it's not because they like Trump and Putin. That would entail a vision larger than their diffraction-producing slits in their blinders would permit.

It's because there's an agent-state/provocateur they dislike and they don't care who they incidentally support in opposing the Great Satan. Their hate is intense and focused, and the rest of the universe ... That's for their agitprop folk to manage. And dupe.
