    The US has killed his wife, son, parents, sister, brother-in-law and two children. The Iranians will consider them religious martyrs.

    Feels like the US is just rolling a dice hopping to get the right number.

    They’re not backing any opposition party or resistance group. Just throwing bombs hoping the next leader will be complacent with them.

        i’m pretty sure the us will try more regime change, yes.

        will they try it by killing the leader again? hard to tell.
