The Shah hasn’t been in Iran in almost fifty years. It is very unlikely the Iranians would accept his rule. I’m sure the Iranian diaspora would tell you otherwise but that’s to be expected.

Wrong.

RQ 180s are mostly used for EW but they do carry weapons. I would have to assume a massive build up there of them is to either bring Irans internet back on or jam the Chinese trash blocking starlink. Trump is going to want this on video and he likely doesn’t want innocent people bombed

US CENTCOM announced
quote:
As of January 14, 2026, the **current leader (Director) of Mossad** is **David Barnea** (also known as Dadi Barnea). He has held the position since June 1, 2021, succeeding Yossi Cohen, and his standard five-year term is set to end in June 2026.
Recent reports from December 2025 indicate that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu nominated **Maj. Gen. Roman Gofman** (his military secretary) as the next Mossad director to replace Barnea upon the completion of Barnea's term in June 2026. This appointment has been widely covered and appears to have been approved or advanced (including congratulations from the IDF Chief of Staff), but Gofman has not yet assumed the role.
Sources like The Times of Israel, Haaretz, and others consistently describe Barnea as the incumbent director, with Gofman positioned as the designated successor starting mid-2026. No indications of an early transition, extension of Barnea's term, or change in leadership have appeared in the most recent available information. Mossad directorship appointments are made by the Prime Minister and typically last five years (extendable by one year).

I don't think it is a given that he would be a stable option longterm. There is a sizable portion of the Iranian populace that is against any monarchist rule. It would probably suffice and be accepted in the short term, however, simply due to the desire for change.

Hes talking a big game now about being more of a stabilizer that would look to implement democratic processes that would allow the Iranians to choose their own type of governance
But the sincerity of that who the hell knows

You obviously haven’t watched a single video that’s came out of Iran in the last 2 weeks. They all want him back

So Pelosi and Wray are calling the shots in Tehran as well?
Let it be known, at least the Mullahs buy nothing but the best.

We are going to rain down hell there sometime in the next 24 hours. I am guessing tomahawks for IRGC facilities and other larger targets and more precision aircraft to take down the regimes leaders.

I’m skeptical of us taking out high level people in the regime. Hope I’m wrong though

This is why muslim leaders in iran need to worry.

REPORTS SAY A U.S. AIRCRAFT CARRIER JUST ENTERED THE RED SEA... BUT IT DIDN’T
Turns out, the USS Roosevelt aircraft carrier did not show up in the Red Sea at all.
CENTCOM's announcement about a Roosevelt in the Red Sea was about something else: a destroyer with the same name, not the massive carrier.
The real USS Roosevelt carrier is still sitting in San Diego.

We have aircraft that have the precision capability to take them down. We would almost certainly want men on the ground for confirmation though, especially if we actually target the ayatollah

This isn't the first we've seen this specific confusion with the Roosevelts.

The most popular guy on the team is the backup QB. Hatred of the leader can produce love for any other option.
The fall of Iran’s government will be one hell of a dragon to try and ride. Absent major US involvement I’d be hard pressed to see a friendly, stable and liberal government emerging. Their neighborhood is rough.
