Ah, the arrogance of Americans. We always think we can just topple regimes like they’re a bunch of little kids.

Iranians have been trying to topple their own regime for decades. The rest of the world can help, and it would go a long way toward stabilizing a huge part of the world.

We did it before in Iran. The US killed off their equivalent of George Washington because he want BP to pay royalties on oil in Iran. That did not work out very well for the US or the world. It is debatable if Iran wants a change of government imposed for the sake or Israel. It’s a big country with a long history. It will not be cowed by air strikes.

Israel has assassinated many of Iran’s leaders and scientists. If Iran had done the same to Israel what do you think Israel’s response would be? Iran and Israel are two regional powers fighting it out. The US needs to stay on the sidelines.

The entire problem with Iran began in 1956 when the US overthrew the democratically elected, secular government of Mohammed Mosaddegh and installed the brutal Shah of Iran. All because of oil. That turned a western-oriented, secular society against the West. Opposition galvanized around a fundamentalist, Shi'a religious movement and that's how we got the Islamic Revolution that gave as the ayatollahs that rule to this day.

I'm thinking the US should stay out of the overthrowing governments business. Every problem we have with Iran today was caused by our decisions in 1956.

With the WWIII, the rich and powerful and their kids are no longer safe. So it is definitely not in their interests.

And the thing a lot of regular people don't realize is that the rich and powerful of opposing sides actually tolerate each other pretty well. They sometimes even marry each other.

It's called justice.

Trump didn't prevent or try to stop a damned thing. In fact he threw fuel on the fire by moving the US embassy to Jerusalem.

Regime change often is very easy. The problem is America half-asses wars and the American Army really sucks at counterinsurgency (which wouldn't be a problem if the Americans didn’t half ass it’s wars).

This is so horribly intolerant. Most of the adherents to these religions aren’t at all fundamentalist.

No religion is fundamentalist. But there are fundamentalists within each.

Tried and failed miserably once.

The Shah’s family would like to have a word.

Will the refugees stay onboard until the fighting is over? If not, where will they go? Especially since Egypt and other neighbors in the region are afraid of accepting them.

And I suppose you think it would be easy. Just go in and do it!

We've proven time and again that we can. The problem is that we truly suck at the next step.

And then what happens afterwards? Democracy? Is that what you really believe?

We haven’t even been successful in toppling regimes. Except for maybe Iraq.
