Much of the IRGC is still in place. The Iranian citizens need to clean that up.

No matter what, we took out the radicals. They’re gone, no longer with us.”


But the people are still in bondage. What are we going to do about that?

This is the most important part of the article to understand where we go from here....

The Trump administration has made clear that Iran’s enriched uranium is the “central issue” in the negotiations with the Islamic Republic, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Monday.

U.S. Vice President JD Vance, who led the American negotiating team last weekend, called Netanyahu following the breakdown in the Islamabad talks and clarified “that the central issue on the agenda for President Trump and the U.S. is the removal of all enriched material, and ensuring there is no more enrichment in the coming years, and this could be for decades—no enrichment inside Iran,” the Israeli leader told reporters at a Cabinet meeting in Jerusalem.

“This is their focus, and of course, it is important to us as well,” said Netanyahu.

If you read between the lines, Netanyahu is saying what the priorities of the U.S. are. He is not saying what the priorities of Israel are.

They are NOT the same thing.

It appears that the U.S. understands that regime change is not going to be possible. For Israel, that is likely still the goal. I would imagine they will continue to engage in underhanded tactics to make sure that is still our goal as well.
