Decolonization

Very strongly agree

No

Decolonization ideology emphasizes the importance of sovereignty, self-determination, and non-interference in the internal affairs of nations, particularly those from the Global South. It would strongly support approaches that respect Iran's autonomy and oppose any form of military aggression, viewing war as an extension of colonial dominance and exploitation. The preference is for peaceful and diplomatic solutions that respect the rights and agency of all peoples.

Strongly agree

No, the U.S. should encourage Iran to disarm through diplomatic channels

Encouraging Iran to disarm through diplomatic channels aligns with the decolonization ideology's emphasis on dialogue, mutual respect, and the sovereignty of nations. This approach avoids military conflict and respects Iran's agency, promoting a peaceful resolution in line with international law and cooperative international relations. It reflects a preference for non-violent, diplomatic efforts over the use of force, which is consistent with decolonization principles that critique the historical patterns of domination and violence in international affairs.

Disagree

Yes, but only if they develop nuclear weapons

This stance might be perceived as slightly more nuanced, as it sets a conditional premise for intervention. However, decolonization ideology would still largely oppose it because it implies a readiness to engage in military action against Iran, undermining its sovereignty based on a condition that reflects the priorities and security concerns of the U.S. rather than a mutual, internationally agreed-upon framework. It also echoes the problematic history of Western nations dictating terms to countries in the Global South under the guise of security.

Strongly disagree

Yes, but only with missile strikes

While slightly less aggressive than a full-scale war, missile strikes are still a form of military intervention. Decolonization ideology would likely view this as a continuation of Western imperialism and a violation of Iran's sovereignty. The use of missile strikes, even as a limited form of engagement, would be seen as an act of aggression that undermines the principles of self-determination and non-interference, echoing past interventions in the region.

Very strongly disagree

Yes

Decolonization ideology strongly opposes military interventions by former colonial powers or dominant global powers in the affairs of sovereign nations, especially those in the Global South, which includes countries like Iran. The history of Western interventions in the Middle East, such as the 1953 Iranian coup d'état orchestrated by the United States and the United Kingdom against Iran's democratically elected Prime Minister Mohammad Mosaddegh, is often cited as an example of neocolonialism. Advocates of decolonization would argue that going to war with Iran perpetuates imperialistic and colonial legacies.
