Wars for regime change have always worked out so well for us in the past.

I will agree our past performance / history does not bode well.

On the other hand, I am hoping, maybe, we learned our lesson and are not holding back but instead letting the military really go all in on this operation.

I also have my doubts on just how engaging the Iranian people are in actually fighting for themselves.

I was reliably informed that if we voted for Kamala Harris, there would probably be a war in the Middle East

Actually they have.

You fail to consider time as a factor and foolishly demand instant certainty. You can’t grasp the simple reality that history is a process rather than event

Iraq is now stable and free of the Hussein family. The major Hussein still an enemy of America is Barack Hussein Obama.

Wars for regime change have always worked out so well for us in the past.

Not always but history rarely shows wars always achieve positive outcomes. At six least were completely successful, while some were partially successful with deferred consequences, and others had no regime change but some positive outcomes
1. American Revolution (1775-1783) -- regime change, great success
2. War of 1812 (1812-1815) -- did not change regime in Canada, but successful
3. Indian Wars (approx. 1817-1898) -- regime change and successful
4. Mexican War (1846-1848) -- regime change and successful
5. Civil War (1861-1865) -- regime change and successful
6. Spanish-American War (1898-1902) -- regime change and successful
7. World War I (1917-1918) -- regime change with unintended consequences, not successful
8. World War II (1941 –1945) -- regime change and successful
9. Korean War (1950-1953) -- no regime change, mixed results: South Korea survived and thrived but North Korea regime survived and has many nuclear weapons: big strategic miss
10. Vietnam War (1964-1975) -- wrong regime change, Communist victory, but now we trade with united Vietnam and tourists visit so peaceful now
11. Desert Shield/Desert Storm (1990-1991) -- no regime change, postponed problems and they returned because root causes were not addressed
12. Global War on Terror (Oct 2001 – Sept 2021) -- partial regime change but bungled war effort and missed opportunities because root causes were not addressed

“Wars for regime change have always worked out so well for us in the past.”

WUT?

All wars are for regime change.

The two wars which didn’t include regime change were failures -Vietnam and Korea.
