A vehicle plowed into a nighttime gathering of regime supporters in Yazd, leaving at least 3 dead and 8 injured. Some reports suggest the death toll could be as high as 7.

It remains unclear whether this was a deliberate attack or an accident.

These gatherings are reportedly staged, paid rallies organized by the regime.

I don't think Shah Jr. Is the answer, nor will he be the new Iranian George Washington. I do believe however that he can help organize and be a steady voice of short time leadership. Not sure, but I'm guessing he would have DJT's ear for the short term.
Regardless, it's an Iranian issue once we help get the IRGC obstacle out of the way. It's OK if Iran is in a mess for a decade or so, they'll work it out. We'll walk away, but not to far. I imagine they'll get some help and oversight from their neighbors provided they show true intentions of changing into a more secular form of government and discards the trouble making terrorism.

We have an idyllic, symmetrical view of what comes next. History reveals a much darker scenario than the Shah’s Americanized son riding with the Iranian people off into the sunset.


Be that as it may, from a global perspective it's a better alternative than allowing the regime, with aid and encouragement from China, to continue on their prior course. Their conventional weapons buildup and their militia have already destabilized the region and threatened the flow of oil. Allowing them to acquire nuclear weapons has long been acknowledged as an unacceptable escalation of risk, and still is despite the sudden spate of Iran apologists in the West coinciding with the onset of "Trump's war".

Obstacle may be a serious understatement. Eradicating them would likely require a much protracted war, and I don’t think anyone has the stomach or desire for that. That is TBD.

I believe the regime has ‘changed’ but it’s hard to see an outsider or a western hand-picked leader at the end of this. Total surrender may look different than what we visualize, and I think the administration knows this. The decimation of their military assets, neutering of nuclear aspirations, damage to their infrastructure, and crippling their economy may have to be enough. To go beyond a point of diminishing returns is only going to impoverish the population even more.

Our stated goals from the outset were nuclear capabilities and delivery systems. We have practically if not literally accomplished that. At some point the President is going to have to end this since only he has the authority to. He is the only one that can call Israel off too, whether they like it or not.

And right on cue, just days after the federal raids on the MN Learing Centers…

All one needs to do is simply stop making excuses for a regime that has waged war via proxies and in recent days turned its ire toward her Arab neighbors and I don't wish to hear excuses as to why

This 47 year occupation by a bloodthirsty, Imperialistic regime has contributed absolutely NOTHING/ZERO for the betterment of the global community; in fact - quite the opposite

Some in this nation went absolutely ape over a drug filled felon killed by law enforcement but looks the other way when this regime murders 30k of its own in 14 days

Yes, this regime is an existential threat to the larger world and must not be allowed to simply be weakened.. it must be eradicated as one does to cancerous cells for if left unabated - death is hastened

Trump is gaining on them. They KNOW the blockade is working!

"The ministry named the five as Hengli Petrochemical (Dalian) Refinery, and so called 'teapot' refineries Shandong Jincheng Petrochemical Group, Hebei Xinhai Chemical Group, Shouguang Luqing Petrochemical and Shandong Shengxing Chemical," Reuters reported

"The injunction stipulates that the United States cannot recognize, implement, or ?comply with the sanctions imposed ?on the aforementioned five Chinese companies," the ministry said

As long as the Islamic Republic is in control of anything, there will be no end to their nuclear dreams, plans and schemes. Regime change is the only guarantee that the nuclear ambitions have been extinguished.

It would be interesting to know what the plan or plans are for getting our hands on that enriched uranium.

They say it`s deep and that will take some time with heavy equipment.

Has anyone heard of any plans for extracting the enriched uranium?

Heard plans? No

Would assume a total regime change, with the incoming/presiding government cooperating with others for its removal - particularly the US given its alleged origin and corresponding prosecution(s)
