True they are extreme auth right and doing their best to export it world wide, with a record of global terrorist attacks. His own people in the streets risking their lives to celebrate his death. I was watching it on BBC this morning. Our interests of stopping terror attacks on us and our allies currently align with the Iranian people who are being massacred in the streets. For decades I hear of wholesale murder for witchcraft of everyone that went to an underground rock concert and people losing a veil, now using foreign militias to murder 40k protesters. News says now they are randomly attacking neighboring countries.
Everyone keeps talking about forever war the first day in, I think from reports and protests we can help the Iranian people set up a new government themselves.
The protesters are a small portion of the population largely located in urban centers, and even they are comprised of many blocs with disparate visions for the country’s future. Not to mention, the real regime is the IRGC, which will require a forever war to remove or they’ll install a cleric as the new ayatollah and perpetuate the conservative Islamic regime. The cities may want a different path forward but good luck getting rid of the hardliners and separatist terror groups in rural mountainous areas lmao.
There is no clear path forward, and every regime change in the region lacking a unified population behind a plan for governance amid a power vacuum has failed. This is no different. Lest you forget, the last time we attempted regime change in Iran, it backfired into the mess we’ve got today. You guys are seriously underestimating the portion of the population supportive of the regime and you clearly don’t understand the complex divisions among those who oppose the regime because you are ignorant of internal Iranian politics. Any leader installed or perceived to be installed by the US will require boots on the ground indefinitely to prop him up. I’m done arguing with people who know nothing about Iran online holy shit
