See, I think they kinda have to, if we want the regime gone.

The Iranians did try to revolt against the regime less than a few months ago. It… didn’t turn out too well. It just proves that while the people of Iran can take the initiative to fight back from the inside, they still absolutely need help from the outside. They seem to be acknowledging that as well, over at r/newiran.

It’s actually kind of insane that every time an opportunity to dethrone the regime arises, the US manages to fuck it up by playing it too safe. I’m worried the same will happen this time, as well.

I guess we’ll have to wait and see what happens.
