This is hopefully going to turn into a revolution even greater than the scale of Tiananmen Square in 1989. The chinese folks I know call it a revolution here watching from Canada, while their relatives in China seem to downplay it and not call it a revolution, but it had major positive societal consequences either way.

This story needs more attention. And this is one of the rare (even unique?) times the brashness of Trump is preferred to the status quo support of Iran by Obama. Obama was very careful to not upset Iran. Trump doesn't care if he upsets Iran. Obama was keen on stability in the middle east which necessarily included not upsetting Iran while turmoil reigned in Iraq and while appeasing Saudi Arabia.
