Our Enemies May be Falling Apart

...But the regime does seem to care about prisoners. In recent days there have been several prison breakouts — five of them, according to dissident reports -- in widely separate locations. Why all of a sudden are Iranian jails so flimsy? Most theories reject the fanciful hypothesis that the regime has gone soft on those incarcerated; most of the explanations have to do with the virus epidemic. The conditions for the prisoners are atrocious, and they know that at any moment their execution may be ordered. Indeed, that would be the “normal” method of dealing with unrest in the prisons. Instead, the disgruntled prisoners are being permitted to “escape” from bondage...“Temporarily freed” indeed. The security forces could have shot the escaping inmates, but didn’t. So they wanted escaping prisoners — highly likely to be infected with the virus — to spread the disease. Not that the regime was prepared to combat it. So it was more convenient to have sick prisoners make things worse for the people. That way, the regime saves the expense of formal executions and kills off even more citizens.

I guess the thought by the regime is that if they are going down they are going to take as many Iranians as possible with them.

Controlling people is easy if you have no conscience. You simply kill and imprison people until they come in line. You just rule through fear.

You can’t control this virus through thuggery. I think the regime is
panicked. Only the people of Iran cooperating can slow the virus.

While we are in lockdown domestically and Iran is in at least partial disarray, would the perfect time to decapitate the Iranian regime and destroy all nuclear capability. If there are Iranian sleepers or other “doomsday” mass-casualty contingencies set up as deterrents, there are no mass gatherings for them to target, and counter operations by US forces will have empty streets to operate in.

We need this about about as much as we need open borders.

In past viral epidemics, the infections died out as “herd immunity” started to dominate. When there are enough immune citizens the herd, the ability for an ill person to infect another person drops to the point that the epidemic dies. In this case, the dominant people that die are the elderly. That includes the leaders of these countries. The result may be that the strategy to infect the population will result in the demise of the leaders.
