All I can tell you is to go talk with Iranians. I don’t know where you live, but every major city has an Iranian expat community.
All I’m trying to communicate is the conversations that I’ve had with my Iranian wife, her expat friends, and my in-laws in Tehran.
Maybe they should go be the boots on the ground for the next quagmire if it's so important to them? Commander in Chief Bonespurs and the Secretary of Booze can lead the charge straight up the Straight.
Or maybe they should just focus on being Americans in America and some day Iran will sort itself out without the US' "help".
It won’t just resolve itself, unfortunately. The last 40+ years have proven that.
A non-theocratic Iran is in the US interest.
If you give the Iranians arms, I’m sure they would be happy to fight. Have we armed anti-regime Iranians?
I do think we have an obligation to help. That’s just my personal opinion.
As an analogy: if your neighbor is beating his wife, it’s not moral to just put your earplugs in and go back to sleep. You have to take action.

I'm well aware of the insane perspective of Iranian monarchists in America. Frankly it's not really their fault, American interventionists have pushed them into this brainrot.
But having an opinion doesn't make it a good opinion and there is no way to say "please get my grandmother's blood on your hands for my insane vision of Iran" sanely.
