Lol can you imagine how much money these goat fricking retards have put into delivering conventional munitions with regional missiles? They basically have a V2 rocket program. Welcome to 1944.

Good lord, you just sound like the angry old man stereotype. Can barely work a computer machine but doesn’t let that stop him from spouting off emotional nonsense.

"All of the people celebrating because they were finally free is going to be short lived if a similar leader remains in place."
so this negate all the other things you supposedly read.
1) their nuclear capabilities are now non existent and will be for decades
2) they can't frick with the straight of Hormuz
3) the Houthis and Hezbollah and Palestinians and domestic terror cells being funded throughout the world have their funds cut off
4) the countries around them strive for peace in the ME
but because "all of the people celebrating" presumably can't, given the window of opportunity to take it upon themselves to replace the regime that has repressed and slaughtered them for decades, change the regime themselves this whole thing is a failure.
You're right I stand corrected. We should have just left the existing regime that slaughtered and repressed them for decades in place, NOT accomplished the other items above,
and kept the potato who looked blankly into the camera repeating "don't don't don't" at them all while continuing to release pallet loads of cash they could use to continue on.
thank God we've got visionary's like you to see all this after 5 days.
I stand corrected again. All hope is lost because Iraq something something regime change nation building.

This is not a philosophical or a political debate now. I can’t imagine anyone who wants anything but a positive outcome.

nope China is a big threat because they can supply more ballistic missiles
and how are they going to get those missiles delivered to them? Do they have some secret underground delivery tube like you see at the bank drive thru?

Just a guess, but parts of the IRGC will still hold power. The most militant of them will be dead or hiding. The government will look much the same. All pretense of being an Islamic country will be gone. They will not be funding the Houthis, Hamas, or Hezbollah. And their oil will be on the world market, and western oil companies will be taking over the oilfields.

It'll probably still look brown like it always has.

This is all that should matter. Anything short of this and all we would’ve accomplished is wasting a bunch of ammo.

Exactly.
Where post-war rebuilds have been successful is when the defeated can be given a unifying purpose. Building a nation is not it because there won’t be single vision for that. Factionalism will almost certainly erode the process.
The Cold War was very useful for this after WWII. Europe was pretty easy to demarcate because Stalin was adamant about having buffer states and the rest of Europe could be convinced of the danger of further expansion. Geography and politics worked together, so there was a common enemy.
Rebuilding Japan benefitted from the Cold War by being “the rear” in the Korean War. Supplying and supporting that did a lot to base a new economy on.
Rebuilding Japan also benefitted from having the general that “beat” them also be a really good administrator. The Bomb finished them off completely, but MacArthur could plausibly claim “victor” status, and he knew how to run a desk. (Most people don’t realize that his biggest contribution to the military was probably his years as West Point Superintendent. His overhaul of the academy still affects things there and in the wider Army over 100 years later.).

I saw a tweet some OSINT guy geolocated as an Israeli F-16 operating about 150 miles inland in Iran. FWIW those accounts annoy me, but if that's true, I guess it's just more evidence that we genuinely do own the air at this point.
The real questions IMO are what are we going to do with IRGC. You're obviously not going to kill them all, they're not all going to leave, they're too interwoven into daily Iranian life.
Seeing some regional IRGC leaders start to waver/separate themselves would be a great sign I think, even if it's very guarded. That type of signal - of knowing nothing is going back - would probably start some level of contagion.
Basij is a different matter.

This war will still be going on 6-8 months from now, I say at least a year or longer. Israel has already been hinting that Turkey is the next Iran, so when our politicians get their marching orders from Netanyahu, Turkey will be the next place that they start a conflict with.
There are also outside players that have an interest in keeping Iran under the extremist regime and who knows how they are going to react in the near future.

That’s almost always the big debate, and a crucial one.
Nazis, Baathists, etc.
If you can parse out the ones that were never true believer and just did what they had to, as well as the truly reformed, these are the people that can knit together a functioning government.
You still need a unifying vision and somebody with the resolve and credibility to keep it on track.
“Democracy” wont be a viable option for a generation, at least.

There was no reason for this. Trump went against intelligence. No one wanted this just Trump and his ego. Just like the trade war. He’s addicted to the chaos and the attention it brings
