Following the targeting of Iran by Israeli airstrikes and the subsequent U.S. Air Force bombing of nuclear sites across the country, extremists on both ends of the political spectrum have reacted, almost universally expressing their support for Iran and hoping for further escalation of the conflict. Neo-Nazis and communists alike have vocally supported the Iranian regime, with some even expressing the hope that Iran would be successful in its pursuit of nuclear weapons.
Communist groups in the United States have been especially vocal in their support of Iran, which is consistent with their support for the nation's proxies in the Middle East, including Hezbollah and Hamas. Some leaders of Western Stalinist organizations are based in Russia, and coordinate their group's activities from there.
The following report will highlight the reactions of American Communist groups to the strikes on Iran, and their support for the Iranian regime.
