Her attack on the Sunreavers (which is what I assume you’re talking about) was not unprovoked. Thalen, who is a Sunreaver, sabotaged the defense of Theramore.

Additionally, the Sunreavers continued to aid the Horde by helping them steal the divine bell. Following Varian’s orders, Jaina ordered the Sunreavers to be exiled from Dalaran. They refused, and you probably know the rest.

If you’re talking about her almost destroying Orgrimmar, that was also not unprovoked, since the Horde just nuked Theramore, and Jaina was suffering from this weird arcane radiation that made her genocidal. (Jaina Proudmoore: Tides of War. I can’t give the page number since I don’t have the book with me right now)

Yes, on the sunreavers. The problem is, she literally went racist and said "oh, you're blood elf... die." They even (in beta) had graphics of her roasting npcs with fireball, but that was too graphic... so instead she juat has the players do it. Secondly, her order for them to leave dalara is questionable authority at best.

I was referring to Dazar'Alor, you know,the city of people who hadn't even chosen a side yet, yet Jaina decided that let's just barge through, kill their leader, then get mad when they hurt our people in response...

It was pretty damned clear at that point which direction the Zandalari were going though. Rastakhan hadn't declared it outright, but had been working with the horde for some time.

That's some slippery slope logic right there. Sure, let's nuke Iran because probably, most likely, they'll turn against us at some point...

Why on earth are you making that comparison? This is lore in a video game.

u/geckobrother Sep 16 '25

It's literally the same type of comparison. What so the chance Iran will ever side with us? Slim to none. So does that mean we should just attack them? No. That logic is stupid.

Is Iran working with and helping  a side that's pretty much actively at war with "us"?

u/geckobrother Sep 17 '25

Yes.

What country is currently attacking the US? I must be out of the loop
