I just want to say to all Persians here: get rid of the mullah‑politburo!! Your Persian empire might collapse, but you’ll be fine — your Persian lands are the best part of Iran. So relax and handle decolonization the way the British did.

I hope Trump isn't just "winging it" getting the Iranian people to riot with no plan what to do next.

36 dead so far and nothing to show for it.

 

[CrusaderFrank]

Sounds like Bibi and the CIA are already up to their necks in it

 

[Woodznutz]

I would back away from Iran and let them settle it themselves. When they are ready to join the rest of the civilized world, I would re-engage with them.

So Trump is lying when he said he would protect the rioters?

The biggest problem is that the Persian empire might collapse together with the mullah‑politburo, and the majority of Persians want to preserve the Persian empire (Iran). The Persian lands are the best part of Iran, but Persians want the Iranian empire intact — and even expanded. I don’t think that’s possible. Persians will lose at least some of their colonies, such as Kurdistan and Baluchistan.

CIA for sure (you make it sound like it’s a bad thing; I don’t know why). As for what “Bibi” does — I don’t know, I don’t work for him.

Well, the mullah‑politburo gang is well armed; the people aren’t. Should we provide them with weapons to make this fight more fair?

That would just spill more blood. Let the protests do their thing. There are other ways to protest as well, strikes, boycotts, work slowdowns, etc.

/----/ As president, I would do what President Trump is doing. Keep my word, and react swiftly to any attacks on dissidents. I'd ask Musk if he could offer Starlink to the citizens so they can regain their communications that the brutal Komani took away.
I'd also help the Shaw be installed and urge free and open elections. I'd also free up money that has been frozen.

The mullah‑politburo gang doesn’t look strong, and the Moscow empire has literally dumped the Iranian mullahs. I’m not sure who would win this time, but the mullah‑politburo, much like the Romanovs in the 20th century, has outlived Shia‑Bolshevism and is on the way out. Do we agree on this?

Assess the groups and leaders of the revolution if they are a strong ,organized force wanting freedom and democracy then support them first with rhetoric and diplomacy then in a clandestine way and if they look as if they will make their goal of over throwing the regime then in an overt way with supplies and military assistance.

The Iranian people need to remember the old adage, if you shoot at the King, you had better not miss.

I cannot answer the OP's question but I have every confidence that Bibi can think of something.

 

[Litwin]

Bibi can think of something.

Why Bibi? I don’t see how Israel can handle this issue.

Be obama, turn your back on the arab spring,
Support the ayahtola,

let's send iran two billon dollars in Euros"
'In the middle of the night
If we help iran sponsor terrorism
we won't need to drop 1 million starlink
tablets by parachute into/onto the people.

That's a zero based budget savings.

ANY OTHER PRESIDENT
in American history would have had this,
Instead
Our president is watching
a ballgame with the butcher castro,
doing the fuckin' wave.

Our guy...
Our president
Ineligible from day one.

After the wave they traded fun fidel stories about closing gitmo.

Idiots
