I mean so far all I can see is a good cop bad cop routine. If Pezashkian has the power to make Iran pro-West, he also has the power to stop fucking with the US in the middle east.
He is a vetted candidate by the Ayatollah... Expecting him to make exceptions for the west is the exact same mistake China did regrading Trump, expecting that this deep state vetted candidate actually can bring an exception to foreign policy.
Anti Israelis are drawn from a huge pool of people, who also get larger the more Muslim countries amplify their propaganda against Israel (not saying Israel isn't guilty of crimes against humanity, but it's an information campaign casting light on their behavior. Way more died in Rwanda, and nobody cared).
Israel barely controls a few more streets from the start of the war, and the north has seen heavy setbacks as cities/towns had to be evacuated. The contrast is quite clear to Russia's more undisputed success in taking cities and eliminating 100 000s of fighters.
Let's be realistic, these freedom fighters are not valued so much. And in their defense, they are at least selling their lives at higher cost than Zelensky's conscripts at least.
Probably people here, including me, would want China to deploy it's overmatch in technology and flatten the new Axis, from Tel aviv to Hawaii. But such ideas are never without risk, especially now that US is still able to cause mutual destruction. In the end, I trust the Xi government and that it has done a much better analysis on how to break down the US threat than is possible using civilian opinions based on open source data.
And sometimes, maybe that strategy involves throwing meatshields from another country/culture. Maybe back then, Americans also gritted their teeth watching Soviets slaughter the afghan mujahideen while superior US tech and weapons could have won on the field, but in the end, Americans had their revenge on all of the USSR.
