Are you confident this war is targeting a regime change vs causing a failed state scenario?


> Are you confident this war is targeting a regime change vs causing a failed state scenario?

To the best of my knowledge, yes. Iranian people are the most pro-West people in the middle east. It's in the US's interest to support them for a better future, and we've seen successful examples of this in the past in Germany, South Korea, Japan, etc.

Not every country should be compared to Iraq and Syria.


I hope it's true. Middle east interventions have all led to failed state scenarios so far. And I doubt this administration is smart enough to do whats best for the US. End of day I guess Israel decides the outcome of this particular war. But yeah we will know in a few months.


Exactly. I very much doubt Israel is willing to entertain the possibility that a new Iranian government won't have any "animosity" towards them.


I’m an Iranian living in the US and I oppose this war.

When was the last time you were in Iran? For me it was 2018.

It is crazy to me that Iranians that have not lived in Iran for decades are begging the US to attack Iran.

Like, how is this going to be different from Iraq?

I was there until after you. You can oppose this war as much as you want; in the end the majority of Iranian people support it.

Many accounts responding to this are Pahlavi supporters. Even the foreign supporters of this war are starting to question it


Do you actually have unbiased data to support that claim?

The problem with being unfree and alive, is one day you suddenly aren't, and you know exactly why and yet still have no idea of the specifics.

The general trend of more freedom==greater lifespan and more healthy children is very clear, but muddying the waters is a favorite tactic of those who'd exploit the lack of freedom for their own benefit.


You should go fight there then and leave the US out of your desire to destroy your home country.


Please don't cross into personal attack, regardless of how wrong someone is or you feel they are.
