Its a wild position. If we think about the US right after 9/11 it was the most united the people have been in my lifetime including politicians. One thing that brings people together is a common enemy.

Exactly. It accomplished the complete opposite of what was supposedly intended here.

If it doesn't accomplish this it will be a first. I have no doubt that there are many Persians that hate the regime. But due to the fact that many no longer live there they may be mistaken in the majority on the ground.

People talk about the war being over 40 years and that the US didn't just start it. Well, let's say that is true. That's basically a generation. There are many many people that have only known the US as an enemy. A generation of people have lived under this regime. If they were one strike away from overthrowing the state I would think it would have happened already.

The longer this goes on the more confident I am that it was a bad idea. Let Isreal do this and deal with the consequences. As long as Bibi thinks Trump has his back he's gonna keep "mowing the lawn".

Far too many people have been gaslit by Trump's handlers.

You don't have to succumb to TDS. You don't have to be a MAGA retard. You can think for yourself and listen to many perspectives. Keep an open mind. Look to understand first, not win the arguements.
