I think we're in what's known as the "rush to war" with Iran.
It would be a powerful plan to be organizing a demonstration to coincide with moving US Troops toward the Iranian border. The Iranian leadership can choose between moving forces to the border to prepare to repel an invasion or keeping them in Tehran to defend against a coup. It would be a lose-lose situation for the current leadership. In fact, I think we could tell them what we're doing and still leave them with no options.
Shalom.
The War on Terrorism started in Terhan and that`s where it will end. Thank you, Mr. Peanut
