US: Most Americans: "unacceptable to leave the Iranian regime in power"

[IM2]

To stop the regime requires a full land invasion. It will engender thousands of casualties, and historically we will be stuck there for years.

Is it worth it?

No.

This is even among Democrats and those who seek a rapid end.

American voters appear to want complete regime change in Iran, while also ending the war as quickly as possible.

Most Americans don't know a damn thing about Iran, I bet they probably couldn't even tell you where it's at.

 

[Superbadbrutha]

Iran is a world wide threat.

Explain how.

 

[Hafar1014]

Explain how.

Trump is changing the balance of power in the world to favor American capitalism and freedom. He is striking right at the heart of Iran China Russia Cuba and Venezuela. The war against Iran is a war against this entire axis of evil. Democrats refused to stand against them and let them literally surround us using Venezuela as base of operations to spread communism in our region. Thats over. Venezuela is now an ally, Cuba is collapsing, the murderous regime in Iran is collapsing, Panama stopped China form taking control of the canal and Irans control of the flow of oil is going to be destroyed.
At the same time Trump expands American power in the world he reduces government power domestically. Democrats are enraged because America and the world is safer freer and better off. Democrats and the left thrives on people suffering caused by their failed policies and the non solutions they have.

Trump is the greatest president in our lifetime

Will there be a Delcy Rodriguez type of order in Islamic Fascist Iran?

Can't have both and may not be able to have either unfortunately.

If it assures the overthrow of Trump's Congressional enablers in November, that will be off the table.

​

A modicum of intelligence would have cautioned an "AMERICA FIRST" stance: "Don't fall victim to Bibi's schemes. Israel has its own agenda."

Trump's goals now shift like the desert sands:

​

At the outset of the U.S.-Israel-led war in Iran, Trump gave lots of reasons for launching the strikes on Iran from stopping its nuclear capabilities to regime change...​

​

His objectives for starting the war - and ending it - have shifted in the weeks since launching strikes early on Feb. 28...​

​

"All I want is freedom for the people," Trump told The Washington Post just hours after those first strikes...​

​

But as the war continued into the third and fourth week, Trump has spoken less and less about the protesters and has made no recent calls for protesters to overthrow the government...​

​

Just a week into the fighting, on March 6, Trump upped the ante by demanding there would be no deal with Iran "except UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER."...​

​

Iran instead announced that Mojtaba Khamenei, the son of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, would be taking over as supreme leader, an indication that it had no plans of backing away from the regime.​

​

Trump and his team soon appeared to distance themselves from those earlier promises...​

​

Trump appeared to back away from unconditional surrender as well... it didn't matter whether Tehran actually said it surrendered as long as the U.S. had a position of dominance.​

​

On Monday, however, Trump appeared to return to the idea of regime change with the start of the new talks...​

​

He told reporters on March 23, noting that all the previous leaders were dead and that his team was dealing with new people who he said were "very reasonable, very solid."​

​

Iran publicly said it wasn't engaged in any direct or indirect talks with the U.S.​

​

When he launched the war, Trump emphasized that the bombing would continue uninterrupted "as long as necessary to achieve our objective of PEACE THROUGHOUT THE MIDDLE EAST AND, INDEED, THE WORLD!"...​

​

In his first comments after announcing the strikes on Feb. 28, Trump claimed Iran had been building missiles that "could soon reach the American homeland."​

​

But that claim is not backed up by any public U.S. intelligence reports. The Defense Intelligence Agency reported last spring that Iran would not be able to develop a long-range missile by 2035.​

"Do-do do-do-do do-do-do
I love him, i love him, i love him
And where he goes I'll follow, I'll follow, I'll follow
I will follow him, follow him wherever he may go
From now until forever, forever, forever
I will follow him, follow him wherever he may go...

There is no reason to think so. The goal here is to stop the regime from building nuclear weapons or missiles and to stop it from exporting its violent agenda to other countries in the ME. There is no reason to think a full scale ground invasion is necessary to achieve this.

 

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

Most Americans want "free" healthcare too, but it ain't gonna happen.

In Iran, the God Mafia (aka "IRGC") runs and controls everything, and the People have no say. As with Cuba, everyone with any balls and desire for change has either left or been shot or imprisoned. Not only that, but they have a network of "supporters" around the world - ESPECIALLY in the U.S. - and its global influence cannot be diminished, especially with the tacit support they get from the American Left.

The BEST that Trump can achieve is to neuter the bastards in Iran and make it extremely difficult for them to continue to terrorize their neighbors.

He's working on it. Regime change ain't gonna happen.

Regime change has already happened. Those in power at the end of last month are all dead.

The goal is for Trump to run away, declare victory, and avoid any harm to himself for this master clusterfuck. Its not possible. Oil prices will be higher than a month ago through 2026. Good job!

 

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

A high-altitude nuclear blast over Tehran would not injure anyone and would produce nominal radioactive fallout. However, it will generate an EMP that will knock out electronics, electric grid, and communications. The weak-minded cavemen in Iran will think that they have been smited by the Hand of God Himself! And surely Allah would not have allowed that if Allah was still around. Thus, the Yahweh most certainly defeated Allah and is now setting His sight on the heathens in Iran! Imagine how they would react to the huge 1-mile wide fireball 10 miles in the sky! It would be glorious and would bring the war to a close, and in doing so will save countless lives!

You really are stupid, aren't you? Using a nuke would likely end all life on earth. You really should seek counseling.

This is the service department. Your crystal ball is overdue for calibration. Please bring it in for service. The management.

If the current regime in Iran is still in charge next November, will Americans notice ending that regime quickly was never a realistic possibility?

"Iran can outlast the US"​

Iran can’t ‘win’ this war. But it can force a US retreat using these 4 insurgency tactics

Sorry, I thought for a mooment you were serious poster.

 

[WEATHER53]

Iran once again crowing that it is running the whole show and rejects US peace proposal which could have saved Irans sorry ass
These are the disobedient children which is why lib loons affiliate with them so easily. The adults need to take control and stop playing footsie

 

[Carl in Michigan]

The Iranian Regime will end up more hard line than before. The Felon will walk away shouting “WE WON!”

This nonsense is why liberals don't belong in Washington

 

[WEATHER53]

And a powerful denunciation shifted to a lesser participated location

 

[Thethingsz]

Zionism and the Zionist lobby….

Yea whatever

 

[Thethingsz]

Correct.

 

[BS Filter]

Fun to read all the doom and gloom by the uninformed here. They keep judging Trump with the previous politicians who didn't fight to win.
