That is BS. The Mullahs lack their own people support.
When Asked if whose side they'd be, assuming a war breaks out between Iran and US today, just 40% of Iranians said they'd defend their administration and country, 18% said they'd support Americans and 35% are against war.
Check out this interesting poll
53% of Iranians would be fine with the presence of US troops in their country !!
Awesome! Not surpsing.
