Some people are saying that he was asked by the candidates to do it, so they could slam dunk it, and it seems possible but still, didn’t land quite right the way he did it.

It happened in Moscow but yeah, it’s not like middle eastern children haven’t been attacked here as well.

The vast majority of these killed were civilians.
Many of us, if not most, still have family in Iran. These are beautiful, loving people, often who have the strongest disagreement with their countries leaders, just as we have in this country (if not more so).

I wouldn’t say it was JUST their fault, but there’s a long history of Western involvement (the US and Britain). Project Ajax is the easiest thing to see look up. I’ll likely do podcast miniseries on it as well at some point.

This is particularly true because it’s not just one leader who would need to be disposed.
Anyway, I don’t see many great outcomes to this, and I urge you all to be very mindful and watchful over what happens next.

There are also some who hope that this will free the country and make it easier to return, have a winter home or something.
This also seems unlikely to me, at least given what we’ve seen happen when a Middle Eastern government is overthrown.

there are some who hate the regime so much that they’re willing to see the country and the people in it be destroyed. I am not one of those people, despite my deep dislike and disgust with any attempt to make a state based on religion or ethnicity

Of course, I will acknowledge that there are many different opinions within the Iranian community about what is happening now. Neither the Iranians in Iran or abroad are monolithic.

I think it’s also hard for non Iranians to understand that the West had a big role to play in getting the Mullahs in charge in the first place. Like, we’ve seen project Ajax and what happens when they get involved.
It’s not great for Iranians ever

Any real attempt to shift leadership in Iran will require American boots on the ground and that will be horrible for everyone evolved (especially the Iranian people, see reason #1 above. )
comment in response to

The second reason is, it’s unlikely that there will be any significant regime change. An attack from the outside, will only galvanize people.
People expecting the US to be met as liberators have no sense of recent or ancient Persian history.

The 1st reason, of course, is that we know that civilians will be killed. It’s always the normal people who get hurt in these events more than anyone else. Even before the US bombings, 600 Iranians had been killed and over 2000 were injured by the Israeli attacks.
