Yeah but is the regime still in power.
The regime was in power because (in part) of its military power.
That military power has crumbled like cards in the face of a small fraction of our prowess.
So..do you think that regime will still be in power with no military power to keep it there?

I suspect we already dematerialized all the "secret weapons we haven't seen before" in the first couple days worth of strikes.
And Iranian regime officials are running around dressed as women right now to stay hidden. Hopefully the Persian people will point them out so that the officials, too, can also be dematerialized.
Iran says they have the hypersonics and honestly i believe them. Have, or had. But the only thing happening right now is a bunch of AI-generated clips of "next-gen" ordnance raining down on Tel Aviv, and Democrats in America cheering the videos as if they're real.

How do they get them? They sure as hell can't produce them in Iran - all of their shite has been blown up

Can you imagine the conversation as the train freight director was told he'd have to transport a bunch of missiles to Iran?
"President Xi has selected you, Won Fuct Duk, to manage this precious freight. Wee Goh Buum will be your train engineer. Good bye, and good luck. TTFN."

The Lanchester square law explains why it’s collapsing so fast, even if Iran planned to “save the good stuff.”
Quick version: In modern ranged combat (missiles, drones, precision strikes), a force’s real power isn’t just its numbers. it’s roughly proportional to the square of its numbers.
Why?
Because every launcher can potentially target any enemy asset. So when the coalition knocks out even a modest percentage of Iran’s mobile launchers (TELs), command nodes, and air defenses, the remaining launch capacity drops exponentially not linearly.
That’s why the chart shows 350 ? 175 ? 120 ? ~50 in days, not a slow grind. Destroying one TEL doesn’t just remove one missile; it kills every future missile that truck could have fired, plus the coordination around it.
The Economist article was written before the coalition went straight for the “launcher hunt” strategy.
Iran never got the chance to cycle through cheap stuff and then unleash the hypersonics the infrastructure to do it is being dismantled faster than they can adapt.
The exponential decay we’re seeing (half-life ~1 day) is textbook square-law attrition. Classic case of quality + precision beating quantity in real time.

Are these new ballistic missiles made by the same people who sold Iran "state of the art" air defenses that were taken down in 14.3 seconds?
Just about everything made in China is a piece of shite.

If we let the Kurds and Azerbeganis attack and back them up with air power and helos, there isn't much the Iranians could do about it. If the Iranians attack they would be annihilated . Put the prince in when Tehran is stabilized as a temp leader. Export every mullah in the country. Destroy the muslim temples (or whatever). Have elections when entire country is stable.
Arm citizens vet any soldiers that has defected. Hopefully, entire units will defect soon.

So you just completely made up that Trump said we would be involved in nation building like Iraq and Afghanistan? If course you did you liberals are too obvious

yes those same people. But Gumbo Pot seems to think they are a huge threat.
Because they can somehow deliver ballistic missiles, in pieces mind you, via the truckload through the countries of Afghanistan and Pakistan (what could go wrong?) and into Iran. Untouched by the US or Israel.
At which point the highly skilled Iranians will reconstruct said pieces. Unscathed. And then add warheads that have all been obliterated and......
oh never mind. I can't even type this seriously to continue to make fun of how far Gumbo Pot is willing to go to try to pretend China is somehow a threat within this process.
Yes, China is the same place that supplied Iran with the piece of shite equipment that all didn't work to defend iran and got blown up in the first 48 hours.
But fear not, Gumbo Pot has also told us the "Russia has entered the picture".
It's amazing how hard some work here to manufacture problems where there are none.
Regime change!!!!!!! we must have regime change!!!!!!!

"What an angry person you are. I have not seen ‘anything’ after 5 days. All of those things you mentioned are great I suppose, but they still lead to a war torn country unless the government is overthrown, whether by the military or the Iranian people"
pointing out that you are an idiot does not make one angry. It makes one capable of reading the idiotic things you post.
You suppose all those minor little things are "great". adn yet you spend no time on them.
Well then the Iranian people better get busy overthrowing their government if they want after we've completely taken it apart. If they don't or can't then it will either be "war torn" or will quickly go back to the repressive regime they had the ability to overthrow.
Meantime whoever ends up in charge is going to spend the next decade tryingt to find their arse with both hands rather than acquiring nuclear weapons they would absolutely use and funding the terrorists of the world.
You know those "little things" that you guess are great.
Meantime we will work with other countries in the region on peace and prosperity. Which will be a lot easier without the largest purveyor and funder of terrorism and chaos getting in the way.

Their problem isn't necessarily missiles, rather launchers.
When you lose your launchers, you can't launch.
US Space Force is providing information to knock them out as soon as they launch. Also taking out the launch team.

Most people would say “I disagree with you, even if they can’t take control of their government, the other things carry greater weight”. You prefer calling people an idiot. You sound angry.
The President has said outright that one of the goals is regime change. I think he means it. Do you not? He also said liberating the people of Iran was a goal. Those two things are closely related. Why do you not think those things should also be essential to victory if he stated that they would be in part?

You might want to tell Gumbo Pot. I suspect in answer to this he will claim that china is also sending the launchers, in pieces, on trucks, thru Afghanistan and Pakistan and therefore china poses a serious threat in this situation
Because, you know, that’s easier than just admitting you were full of shite in the first place like he should do.

But success and failure is based on regime change
There is not another metric but this now.
This was your position when you entered the conversation. Until you are prepared to admit you are full of shite on this position and that there are plenty of other metrics IN ADDITION TO regime change theres no reason to discuss Trumps position on it (especially because you spend so much time ignoring ALL of Trumps other positions on this).
I’ll just stick with my original conclusion that you are an idiot.
