It’s the lesson we refuse to learn about the Middle East. Every time we intervene and topple a regime, something worse emerges.

Well, a new regime can’t be worse than what they have today, which is mass production of missiles drones and bombs all sent to terrorists who all aim them at Israel, while working toward a nuke.

No way it’s worse than what they have today.

Strongly disagree. If i had to bet I’d side with regime change, but as a direct state actor Iran has been predictable for a long time now. Iranian proxies are a different story, but the reality is that we’ve (US) haven’t faced a significant successful threat from Iranian proxies in a while, likely by design. We’ve settled some old scores, though.

Admittedly a different story for Israel.

Let Israel worry about that.the US has other concerns. As long as innocent people aren't being maliciously targeted, I don't want to hear about it.

You’re not going to get a regime worse than the Ayatollahs. And if it goes well, the ME gets a regime that they and the west can support like the Shahs.

But I don’t think regime change can result in anything worse than what they have today.

Do you think they store them next to all the WMD Saddam had?

Remember the mobile WMD lab they lied and claimed he had?

They've claimed Iran has been close to getting a nuke for over 30 years.

Apples and Oranges

. IAEA has inspected the Iranian locations for compliance. They exist. They had help from NK and maybe Pakistan.

None of that is speculation like Iraq.

Didn't some Iranian proxy kill 3, and injure 40 US service members in Jordan in January '24?

We're all gonna find out real soon exactly what kind of control the tiny nation state of Israel has over the American Government.

The lesson you need to learn is that Islam is not compatible with civilization.
