Correct, you make yourself a de facto participant...for no real gain, especially in this case.

An Iran that is friendly to the USA is a huge win for the USA. Have you forgotten that it is Iranian backed militias in Yemen that are shooting at ships requiring the USA to spend billions to keep the Red Sea shipping lanes open. Have you forgotten that it was Iran who is supporting the shiite militias in Iraq? Have you forgotten that Iran is under sanctions because it is trying to build nuclear weapons to attack Israel and American troops in the Middle East. Also if the regime is overthrown that means the sanctions on Iranian oil go away. That means more oil for the world to buy which means lower prices. That would be huge on the domestic front as a way of lowering prices and it would further isolate Russia and push Putin closer to bankruptcy.
ETA: An Iranian regime that is friendly with the USA also helps us put pressure on China. If the USA and/or governments who comply with the USA have control of Venezuelan oil and Iranian oil then China is in trouble. Russia would be their only secure supplier and currently Russia doesn’t have enough tankers in its ghost fleet to keep China supplied and the pipeline network between the two countries is not adequate either. Bottom line is that removing the mullahs and IRGC would be a huge win for the USA.

OK. Let the Iranian people handle that. They need to overthrow THEIR mistake from 1978 -79. They did this to themselves.
So many of you are for America First and not getting involved until Trump has some sort of brain farther in the middle of the night and has digital diarrhea as the result. Then you change your tune.
What's going on in Iran is something to merely observe. Never get involved with your enemy while he is self destructing. Iran and the mullahs are self destructing. Get popcorn and sit back and watch.

Iran has done those things and the net positives are a possibility if actions went perfectly as planned but not a certainty. To issue a warning against another nation’s internal affairs and insert yourself into the conflict is what has been discussed though. How is that going to bring peace to a ‘boiling pot’ in a sovereign nation.

A couple of MOABs through the IRGC command bunkers and the Ayatollah's bunker would help speed up the process. Decapitate the Islamic Republic and then send in the Crown Prince of Persia (I prefer to call him that) to set up a transition government.

The correct situation has not presented itself yet and I do not know how to pay them back. However someone does and Mexico is definitely on the FO list in my book just have to wait for the right opportunity.

Why should we waste one missile or bullet in all of this? Why should we get involved? They are tearing themselves apart. There's no need for the US or anyone else to get involved. You are just inserting yourself into chaos to further the chaos.
Also you presuppose that Pahlavi is competent to do even that. CIA, Mossad, as well as MI 6 and French Intelligence have had severe reservations about him for years or else they would have primed the pump.

Not dealing with them before led to 911.

If Trump manages to get the Cuban and Iranian regimes toppled that would be incredible. Hell can we throw North Korea in there as well?

Payback for holding Americans hostage. Sending a message to Xi and Putin not to f**k with America or our friends.

No the USA would be inserting itself to establish a government under Raza Pahlavi or someone else they think can guide the country through a transition period without the country falling into civil war. Iran descending into civil war would not be good for anyone. Last thing the world needs is rebel groups threatening to fire on oil tankers in the Straits of Hormuz.

I propose Pahlavi because the crowd is chanting his name and I do not know who the other power brokers are. The intelligence community does and if they have a different person in mind then I am ok with that too.

Wait, Iran was involved with 9/11? Al Qaeda was Sunni. The mullahs are Shia. They don't mix well.
That might be the most stupid comment on this board.

No but the Iranian Shiite militias in Iraq fought and killed US soldiers in Iraq for years.
