Back to square one. But hey the war is over?
Trump just killed his father, mother, wife, and child. And some reports say he lost a leg in the bombings.

By all accounts he's even more of a hardliner than his father.

His appointment by the regime is a double down, and likely to push things further into extremism, in my opinion.

The thing that gets me is we see all this mass celebration that Khomenei sr was killed, but it looks more and more like regime change is off the table. Was this really worth celebrating if you are getting the same crap with Khomenei jr?

Orange pedo ghoul is making everyone look like fools by believing him yet again. The world seemingly will never learn.

There was celebration buy Iranian people, both in Iran and abroad. Khomeini killed tens of thousands of Iranians people. If the people of Iran believe it is worth celebrating, then it’s worth celebrating.

I don’t think this war is close to over. Like I said before, I don’t think you can call this a success without a real change of the regime.

Right, and it needs to be a change for the better. But there's no plan for that, so if it does change for the better - somehow better for Iranians and better from the perspective of the Israeli and American attackers - then it will just be by accident. That's not going to happen. Success in Iran isn't necessarily success for Israel and the USA. They all have competing needs, priorities, objectives, etc. Who gets to say what success looks like? Americans? Israelis? Iranians?

I mean, come on. This is a disaster. A humanitarian disaster. An environmental disaster. A political disaster. A financial disaster.

Straight up: are you stupid?

My belief is if the people of Iran are happy with a new regime, then it’s a success.
