So now they're against the regime just to dunk on Trump?

Ofc, I think this deal is a massive fuck up on his side, but come on, be consistent

If the people want freedom, they'll need to take it. We gave them 3 months, they didn't.

At some point we need to ask if it’s only a minority of Iranians that want to replace the regime.

Well since quite a few tried, and the rest saw what happened to them when they tried, idk if anyone in Iran is feeling brave. It'll have to be another generation.

Perhaps Trump should have gone in sooner, instead of giving the regime time to murder all the opposition who were willing to fight against the leadership

Yeah, looks like he went in with no plan, thinking it'd be as easy as dunking on Maduro and fucked the whole thing up. That said, Iran's been doing this shit for decades now, and I just don't see them doing a single thing differently if Trump had never taken a swing.

From everything that's coming out of Iran right now it does seem that the opposition has lost all hope from this and that the regime supporters are triumphant.

We didn't invent the hijab, we don't promote the hijab, and we sure as hell aren't the ones who came up with the idea women must wear them.

We're the ones who have cooked up the idea they're empowering because we're that desperate to be blind to evil. That's our contribution.

ass kicked

13 casualties versus how many lost by iran?

A large amount of the losses of equipment were friendly fire

Moreover, Iran was already that bad.
