I'm open to this based on objectively verifiable teardown of all their nuclear enrichment and weapons research infrastructure.

This is a hard no, red line in my eyes.

The original context for my comments was what did Trump think was going to happen.

God only knows.

Well, you picked one thing out of a list. I don’t understand with whom you are arguing.

We part ways where you say regime change is measured by a couple of years without the regime misbehaving.

Then we part ways. Because that would be a major outcome and a strong indicator of continued success.

We have to judge success in terms of how the outcome compares to the JCPOA deal that preceded it.

I would say that everything being the same, and Iran has no enriched uranium, Iran is subject to an inspection regime with teeth, and Iran is not funding Houthis, Hamas, and Hezbollah is a hell of a lot better than JCPOA.

That amounts to wishful thinking without regime change.

And everything isn’t the same, though. It’s costs plenty ($$, equipment, lives, credibility, political capital).

This also assumes they could never obtain more uranium in the future. Whatever we’ve been told about the destruction of their nuclear capabilities has been put under suspicion.
