Looks to me more like DCUM America haters are freaked out bc the US isn’t losing a war.

And FWIW, I’m opposed to this action. But since it’s a fait accompli, I’m sure as hell hoping it succeeds.

You and the “Death to America” crowd apparently feel otherwise.

It ahs been barely 24 hours. There is no winning or losing at this juncture.

Of course there is, unless one is being absurdly pedantic.

Decapitating the regime (confirmed) and substantially degrading their force projection and defensive capabilities (apparently) = winning.

Doesn’t mean that it’s “over”, but it is winning.

DP. Where did you hear or read that the regime has been decapitated and that it has been confirmed? That’s not what I’ve been reading and I read a broad range of sources.

NY Times, BBC, Guardian, WaPo, Economist, etc.

Suggest expanding your reading list.

I read those and more. Do you have any specific cites?

Sure you do.

Reminds me of dubya with his giant “mission accomplished” banner. You people are delusional.

You not tired of getting your rear kicked up and down the field yet? Go to bed.

They’re delusional or just choking on their “freedom” fries and unable to think straight.

Isn't a lot of the diaspora from the families who were tight with the Shah? The ones who would like the crown prince back?
Kinds of like white Russians (displaces countesses and such) after the Russian Revolution and fascists in South America.

Yes, exactly.

Just like the plantation owners who left Cuba with all the ill-gotten gains they had accumulated before the Castro regime was able to get to them. Their hatred of “Communist Cuba” for breaking up their slave trade is legendary.

Take a trip out west to Beverly Hills or the wealthier enclaves in the San Fernando Valley of California (or Toronto, Canada if you can’t bear a long flight) to see what these poor, “freedom-loving” Iranian “refugees” were “left with” after they fled Iran in the early 1980s.

My god. You truly have no shame.

Who needs shame when the truth is on their side?

“Their”? Ok sock puppet.

Talking sh*t about Iranian immigrants to the US bc you hate the US? Shameful.

There’s no sock puppeting. As for Iranian immigrants, I know plenty. Plenty.

Let’s just say that nearly all of them benefited tremendously from the corrupt Shah that was installed by MY government (yeah, I’m free to criticize the actions of MY government - at least, last I checked).

So of course many of them are gleeful to see us stick it to the regime that interrupted their gravy train.

The well-adjusted (normal?) ones are saddened by the loss of life and passage of time (that cannot be recovered) over the past nearly 50 years, and few are viewing the U.S. (again, MY country) as heroes acting out of a deep well of benevolence for the Iranian people. They know the score.

What BS. Start by looking up the median age of people of Iranian descent in the US. You’ll find that your claims literally impossible.

Second, it takes a real bag of feces to hate America so much that you also hate (and denigrate) a bunch of refugees and their descendants who hope to see their country liberated from a tyrannical regime.

You’re bloody awful.

Most of those Iranians are no longer Iranian either culturally or by citizenship. Seriously. You haven't seen all those people ICE is deporting that feel no ties to their supposed motherland? And then there are the few like Eileen Gu who get heaps of shit thrown on her for being too American so why would she want to compete for China? smh

Who hates America? By the way, is that your only tactic: smearing those you want to silence with labels that you think will intimidate or frighten them?

As for me, I just don’t care for corrupt immigrants who bellyache about “the bad guys” who interrupted their gravy train. And even though your understanding of the demographics is greatly lacking, the younger generations have heard the family lore FOREVER. They live the grievances like they were there in the 1970s themselves.

And? So? The confirmed death of the ayatollah and some high ranking officials does not mean that the existing governmental structure won’t continue after it is reconstituted. They have a constitution and a succession plan. The second paragraph in your link says:

“It is unclear which of the Ayatollah’s possible successors might rise. Ali Larijani, Iran’s top national security official, said that the president, the head of the judiciary and a member of the Council of Guardians, a powerful group of jurists, would temporarily govern until a new leader was chosen.”

The ayatollah will be replaced and so will the roles of the people who were killed. Trump himself said he is fine with an outcome that looks like Venezuela—head guy is gone but governing structure remains intact. Did you think the US was actually going to execute a complete regime change?

I was the original diaspora commenter - I respect their feelings. I’m also glad Khameini is dead.

Just don’t expect me to take those videos as proof that everyone is dancing in the streets and pro Trump.

No one asked you to, and no one cares.

Check out the definition of decapitated, then lmk if you think this merits further pedantic dillholery.

Khameini was 86. The structure remains intact and it’s delusional to think that the IRGC is just going to shrug its collective shoulders and shrink away. Trump has recklessly put our service members in harm’s way.

And who knows how many civilians will be killed or maimed, both Americans and foreigners. Trump is a clear and present danger to our national security.

The head has been cut off, but the body (especially the backbone of the IRGC) is still functioning for now. Ditto the Venezuelan government.

Yes and yes. Some of these people are mouth breathing, slop slurping, shit reggurgitating imbeciles. One thing to add: You forgot to add that the "head guy" was literally almost like the pope in shia Iran. He was at around dying age already but now Chump made him a martyr. Look at all the chaos in Pakistan because of it.

[Anonymous]

Big party at War-Lago this weekend! After dancing to God Bless the USA, Trump was busy commanding the Epic Fury operation, and wooing his $1,000,000-per-person super PAC donors.

They moved on to celebrating the deaths of ~165 elementary school girls plus 96 injured in Minab, Iran.

Israel's military said it was "not aware" of any IDF operations in the area.

No glasses were raised for the 3 dead service members or 5 others seriously injured. Trump said, “there will be more. That’s the way it goes.” Guess that was his toast for those suckers and losers.

Breaking news: Some Iranian official just said “no negotiations”.

Stay tuned, maybe.

The fact that you put “bad guys” in quotes when referring to the Iranian regime tells us all everything we need to know about you.

You are literally trying to justify your hatred of innocent Iranian-Americans, while defending the mullahs.

I cannot fathom how mentally ill one must be to take this position.

Just going to clarify two things …

1. I don’t hate Iranian Americans. Far from it. Sorry if criticism takes on the aura of hatred in your mind, but that’s something for you to take up with your therapist, I’d imagine.

2. I’ve never defended the mullahs. The quotation marks are intended to illustrate that the new bad guys (the mullahs) just replaced the old bad guys (the Shah and his cronies who exploited their close relations with him) in Iran.

Take care.
