You must be pretty young - “Axis of Resistance” was a response to GW Bush referring to Iran and DPR Korea and other anti-zionist forces as an “Axis of Evil” in his infamous speech. So it literally is American propaganda flipped on its head. Also, the term “Axis” in reference to the losing side of WWII is itself kind of a misnomer. Those powers referred to themselves as the “Anti-Comintern Pact”.
Yeah Axis and Allies wasn’t actually used in WW2.
It was Anti-Comintern Pact vs United Nations.
Very interesting. And yeah I am. I was 4 years old when Obama became president lol. Thanks for the info on the axis of evil.
No problem, sorry to rag on you for being young.
No offense taken. I didn’t take it as you ragging me.
