„Aufklärung ist der Ausgang aus selbstverschuldeter Unmündigkeit“
Probably, but the point is to define that point … I would accept a prolonged overall breakdown of public order, but not much below that threshhold.
Many people seem to think that a so-perceived „weak“ police/policy reaction is justification enough to take law in their own hand. No, it aint!

Well, ofc he can try to, but thats what we should call „authoritarian“ or maybe „fascist“ - abolishibg the separation of powers, giving unckecked power to the executive.
It’s definitely outside the concept of a republic, a liberal state or however you call it.

Ofc the law is a form of violence, for sure. But the monopoly of violence is handed over to the state, and the state has checks & balances to safeguard this use of violence.
The individual citizens can’t reclaim that right and revoke the separation of powers to again use violence on his own.

Well the rule of law hostirically replaces the individual right to use violence … the tendency to consider the rule of law to be only a thin veil that obscures a basic violent truth / reality is a core idea of fascist thinking: power is all, law is weakness.

If you are a socialist, remember Hegel and Marx:
History realise itself through the „cunning of reason“ (Hegel) and „behind the back“ of the actors Marx). Their intentions and moral quality are usually ideology and not important for critical judgement.

Well, I understand, but we have to differentiate intentions and outcomes.
In history, ist very common that bad Intentions lead to good outcomes and vice versa.
The individual motive for an action is in the way no usefull measure for it’s effects.

Well, imperialist interests of the US (get rid of Mullahs) and legitimate interests of the iranian general populatiln (get rid of Mullahs) just accidently may align.
What do you suggest we do in this case?

There is something like a certificate of „degree of indian blood“? Really?

Daher müssend die Iraner diskutieren, ob sie eventuell lieber einen Übergang wie in Südafrika oder Spanien wünschen, also ohne Gerechtigkeit, aber dafür mit Frieden - oder Bürgerkrieg, mit dem Risiko des Staatszerfalls a la Afg./Lib.
Ich finde es sehr richtig das gut zu bedenken.

Sorry. Es geht nicht darum wie moralisch verkommen die sind (ich stimme dir zu), oder was wir uns wünschen (dasselbe wie du), sondern ob ein gewaltvoller Umsturz realistisch schlimmer sein könnte als das Regime - siehe Libyen oder Syrien. Das ist nunmal denkbar. Das war die Argumentation im Artikel.

Anyway, helping the iranian people here may be hypocritical, but may be the right thing to do.
History is tricky. The best developments may be kicked off by bad faith actors, and vice versa.
The moral integrity of a leader is often not as important for history as we think.

Hä? Sorry, darum ging es ga nicht. Es ging um *friedlichen Übergang* statt *gewaltvoller Recolution*.
Das wäre wünschenswert, geht aber nur wenn beide Seiten Gewaltverzicht üben - als die Mullahs „mitmachen“ - etwa a la DDR abdanken.
Sonst gibts eben Gewalt, mit all den unschönen Effekten.

Finde ich völlig plausibel, und meinethalben soll der Typ dort den Steinmeier geben.
Aber diese Familie darf nie wieder Macht bekommen, das wäre eine schlimme Verhöhnung aller Opfer der Schah-Diktatur.
Und für einen geordneten Übergang müssten die Mullahs mitmachen … hoffen wir mal …
