"Agreed! The only real way to bring down the mullahs is seriously disrupt their only mega-profitable natural resource - exportable energy (profits misused for jihadic terrorism)."

True. But the best news of all is: practically all their oil is in one tiny province. This province is inhabited by Arabs (who hate Persians and vice versa) and it is directly adjacent to Iraq. In fact, the U. S. could no doubt occupied this province in a matter of hours if it wanted to.

What you stated is totally correct. The location of the bulk of Iran's oil reserves is made to order, considering the geographic location bordering Iraq and the population being non-Persian Arabs. Oil rich Khuzestan Provence should be the center of our anti-mullah régime efforts.

The following quote is from the map link below:

"The vast majority of Iran's crude oil reserves are located in giant onshore fields in the southwestern Khuzestan region near the Iraqi border and the Persian Gulf. Iran has 32 producing oil fields, of which 25 are onshore and 7 offshore."
