Can you say “nuke Tehran ‘til it glows”? :-)

It’s an empty threat though.

Nuke ‘em til they glow
It worked in Japan, it’ll work in Iran

I saw that on a bumper sticker in late 1979 and still remember it.

The majority of folks in Tehran hate the mullahs - and Islam. If you look at the mosque attendance in the academical research by Shahed University of Tehran among capital cities of 28 provinces in 2015:

• Most Secular (Less religious): Shiraz (South-West), Tehran (North-Central), Ahvaz (South-West), Rasht (North), Sanandaj (West: Kurd, Sunni), Hamadan (West-Central), Urummia (North-West: Azeri), Kermanshah (West: Kurdish), Ghazvin (North-Central), Sari (North), Gorgan (North), etc.
• Most Religious: Zahedan (South-East: Baloch, Sunni), Ardabil (North-West: Azeri), Kerman (South-Central), Qom (Central), Yasouj (South-West: Lure), Bandar-Abbas (South), Yazd (Central), Khurram Abad (West: Lure), Zanjan (North-West-Central: Azeri), Semnan (North-Central), Mashhad (North-East). etc.
• Individualism: Shiraz, Rasht, Tehran, Mashhad, Kermanshah, Urummiah, Isfahan, Ahvaz, etc.

Less than 30 percent of respondents visit mosques at least once a week in Iran as a whole, with it dropping to near 0 in Tehran
