This radical regime took over in the 70’s and gradually forced extreme Islam on all the people while trying to become a global military power. It would be a great outcome if Iranians not aligned with this regime were supported, but that would require regime change.
If Trump starts any talks about regime change, the Democrats will go wild and attack Trump, no matter the consequences to the innocents in Iran. Trump is in a pickle, but he is used to resolving issues, so I am sure he will find a way to exit this war soon, and it will include helping the people as well. All IMO.
“If Iran gains nuclear weapons, the world’s leading sponsor of terrorism will have acquired a nuclear umbrella to protect its armies and many proxies from retaliation.
All that said, President Donald Trump should aim higher than just another nuclear deal that eventually expires. Trump should also demand that Iran’s regime respect the lives and security of its own citizens.
Iran’s nuclear program (with the exception of an unfinished facility known as Pickaxe Mountain) is almost entirely demolished. It’s possible the regime may seek to rebuild, but that will be an expensive and arduous task for a mafia state that is on its back. In other words, there is time to neutralize, either diplomatically or militarily, the Iranian nuclear threat down the road. A more pressing concern is the regime’s survival and whether it will stay in power through another massacre when and if Iranians take to the streets again, as they did three months ago.
This line of concern may sound like a throwback to George W. Bush, who in his second inaugural address proclaimed the ultimate goal of U.S. foreign policy was “ending tyranny in our world.” But it’s really a return to Trump’s promise a few months ago, when he pledged America would come to the rescue of Iran’s protesters. It’s a recognition that the real strategic victory in this war only comes when Iranians take to the streets and topple the holy men and terrorists who stole the 1979 revolution.
Now Trump has an opportunity to use America’s extraordinary diplomatic leverage to wrangle concessions from Iran’s regime that benefit the same people Trump promised to liberate. And make no mistake, Trump has the leverage.”
