The mullahs hav all the guns
I’ve always heard good things about Iranians in general. If things do collapse my hopes are that none of the good people get hurt and the ones who caused all of their misery have nowhere to run.
Israel’s war plan reportedly involves:
1) Destroying every last bit of Iran’s electric grid
and
2) Blowing-up all of the dams in the country and flooding vast stretches.
Suddenly the Ayatollahs will be totally consumed with figuring out how to feed 81 million people, and they won’t be able to cause any more mischief.
I have a feeling that Iran peed off too many countries and the economic squeeze is going to tank their economy in a “planned” attack. The people will have to stand up and hopefully, unlike Obama, America stands with them.
I read the last word as ‘gastrology’! Lol
And Trump just told the Mullahs to go pound sand. That'll embolden the People.
The hundred-some billion dollars that President Obama sent to Iran apparently has come and gone, leaving the Iranian economy once again desperate to avoid collapse.
Would they kill a mullah? A bit extreme if those people are religious.
and Trump’s two groups of economic sanctions don’t even kick in until this August and this November respectively ...
...”When people get hungry because they can’t afford food, the prospects for regime stability decline.”
That will be our only hope if the Democraps coup d’état works.
Nah. They will just blow up Kharg Island. Or better yet, help the surrounding Arab countries do it. Then Iran would have basically zero oil exports.
It’s much more vulnerable and there be much less death. Israelis are nothing, if not hyper-vigilant about avoiding death.
Be careful thought, if you ally with Arabs today to take out a common enemy, those same Arabs will turn on you down the road.
True, but if you can't feed your military, you can only shoot two at a time.
“If hungry people meant regime change, then Venezuela should have crumbled a couple years ago. “
The problem is Venezuela is that it’s populated by Hispanics, who have a history of not being able to govern themselves for any length of time without resorting to a dictatorship. Then not being able to extricate themselves from it. Ditto for all of Central and South America. In the entire Western Hemisphere only America and Canada survive from their founding.
Compared to the other Mideast despots of that era the Shah wasn’t very good at the despot business. Even someone as “mild” and as “Western-PR savvy” as the late King Hussein of Jordan had his “crack down hard” moments that out did the Shah. Ask the Palestinians!
Excellent point. Your whole post is worth bookmarking.
It reminds me of what Ann Coulter said a couple years ago. To paraphrase:
"We should thank God every day that America was founded by White Protestant Englishman, or else we would be living in some version of Brazil, Mexico, or Quebec."
For this ALONE, Obama should hang.
