Who knows? I do know that over 350 Mosques have been burned down according to regime sources. The opposition claims over 7000. That would suggest the people want something other than Islam.

In January, at the peak of the violent crackdown on.... protests in Iran, a medical worker in the northern city of Rasht suddenly found his trauma center overwhelmed with hundreds of injured protesters.
Many were struck by multiple pellets or bullets targeting their heads, necks, chests, femurs and abdomens....
...
“They want to sweep it under the rug."
.... Human Rights Activists News Agency, which tallies only victims it can identify, has reported at least 6,800 protest-related deaths, with an additional 11,744 cases under investigation.
Other estimates put the death toll much higher....
“It is one of the worst mass killings in contemporary world history.”
They also tried to silence....frontline medical workers.
[F]ollowing the bloodshed, which reached its height on Jan. 8 and 9, we contacted....doctors and nurses working in Iran...
....[W]e surveyed 40 Iranian doctors and nurses across 14 cities and 11 provinces about their experiences treating wounded protesters. They shared their stories with us at great personal risk....
This is what they told us. [40 testimonials follow]
Many of the accounts we received from the doctors and nurses inside Iran were of children under 18 who were injured or killed. The youngest was a newborn.
“A breastfeeding mother was holding her baby when security forces opened fire on their car....The bullet passed through the baby’s hand and into the mother’s chest.”
A nurse from the central city of Isfahan sent us testimony from one boy’s father....:
“We had gone to the streets to protest. The officers attacked my son, targeting his head and neck with a pellet gun. I begged the riot police to stop. But before my own eyes, they fired the final shot — a live bullet — into his head.”....

I heard they sunk the USS Maine and threw babies out of incubators too.

Yes. It is imperative that the mullahcracy be ended and replaced with a more democratic form of government.
Stop the gaslighting! We should have finished off those mullahs when our hostages were being held for months. Instead we’ve let them sow misery everywhere for 47 years.
When they get a nuke and send it over to blow. up one of our cities How many American lives will be in harms way? 🙄
bump
And you will be happy about it.
I had seen that but there are different factions of Muslims. Shiite, etc. that hate each other much worse than Baptists/Methodists etc.
Our Left would blame Trump in a heartbeat.
You're too stupid to even realize how disaster doing so woul be.
You're child-like dunce.
So, you're ticked off the Ronald Reagan, the author of the modern-day peace through strength doctrine, didn't react like George W. Bush did?
I trust President Trump to make that decision even ther better aU, you apparently don’t. He has earned that trust over and over again.
JD is going to be the Nominnee and he agrees with President Trump.
That , however , is not the central purpose of this reply. It is an incredible documentary by no less than Walter Cronkite himself! Remember the TV series ' The 20th Century'? I do. I use to really enjoy watching it as a kid. Turns out it ran a documentary on Ataturk : The Incredible Turk! Enjoy!
Look your a peace bot. I get it. News flash, all regime change isn’t equal. Iran is a good one. The mullahs need to go. The whole world will be delighted.
