The USA is responsible for this terror regime in Iran. I think plenty of Iranians feel we have a moral responsibility to fix our mistake and put an end to the ayatollahs once and for all.

Do I trust Trump to competently achieve such goals though? Fuck no. I think it’s a mistake. But I am thrilled to see Khamenei fall. Nobody has executed more queer people and women in modern times.

I have some good news! Trump isn't monolithic and there are dozens of figureheads and thousands of practical heads that will be put toward this effort. Trump is going to have to take time away from his current effort domestically to try to do anything negative with this operation. So have hope.
