IDF Spokesman Brig. Gen. Efi Defrin was asked if striking the Basij would lead to calls for Iranian citizens to take to the streets. He responded: 'As a military, we have no goal to topple a regime. We are creating the conditions for the people to take their country. We struck the Basij forces that impose terror on the citizens. What the Iranian people will do – that depends on them.'

The protesters slaughtered while flooding the streets were primarily teenagers and women.

The hardcore goat fornicators are the ones with all the guns.

The objective isn’t regime change. The objective has never been regime change. Oceania is at war with Eastasia. Oceania has always been at war with Eastasia.

The U.S. has been in this for 47 years.

“’As a military, we have no goal to topple a regime. We are creating the conditions for the people to take their country.”

So what’s the difference. If to help people take back their country, you have to topple the regime. If you punish them enough, and kill almost everyone in the line of power, then aren’t they being accommodating? Another military officer displaying his training.

This has been coming for 47 years. That’s how long Iran has been at war with us. That’s how long they have been killing Americans. This reckoning is long overdue. The regime has to die.

“IDF Spokesman: ‘As a military, we have no goal to topple a regime’”

…That part is Mossad’s job. The Military is just tasked to set the conditions required in the plan.

Trump is best when he trusts his own instincts instead of others.
