I don’t know.... Green Revolution was primarily driven by islamic reformists of the current regime. Had little chance of succeeding. Some thought to use it as a platform for a more transformational change later. So long as hardline islamists exist in iran, even as minority, that transformation won’t happen. It requires a bigger more holistic change.
We shouldn’t discount the iranian intelligence agents. They are very well connected throughout the world, high & low places.
Actually many regime mullahs & their cohorts have investments & property in the U.S. & elsewhere. It’ll take real will & means to bring down their regime in iran. Things the west is not willing to implement nor has knowhow to do.
Mostly iran today needs a very strong, solid alternative leadership to rival the regime. It hasn’t surfaced yet. But in time the regime will go. It’s a very cyclical.
