Boy I keep seeing a lot of “Iranians” not living in Iran calling for revolution. I understand as an American that I have CIA tunnel vision anytime I hear these things but I’m also not Iranian. Are these people serious? Am I being naive? I’m all for the Iranians taking the power back to the people but this is quite possibly the worst time to sow dissent no?

Forget boots on the ground like Iraq, too risky.

They will likely try to bomb and airstrike Iran to smitherens. And continue the at least months lasting bombing campaign until some armed people(guess armed by who) would cause an uprising and regime change.

They want to recreate what happened to Libya with Iran. Where the west only bombs, and their compradors deal with the rest.

The problem with this plan is; first off, the West would need to increase the bombing intensity at least 10 times more aganist Iran to maybe create the devastating effect it did to Libya. They would have to use far more of their arsenal rather than just F-16's and Typhoon's.

Because Iran is far larger than Libya, has a more diverse geography than Libya, and far more populous than Libya. Libya's population in 2011 was 7 million. Iran's current population passes 90 million. Not to mention Iran is far more advanced in domestic air defence.

Secondly, when NATO started bombing Libya, Libya was already in the civil war. Mass armed uprising started in February 2011. NATO established the no-fly zone in late March and then started bombing.

The west already managed to compromise the Libyan populace and started the war to regime change in February, without the need to bomb. While in Iran they want the bombings to start a regime change. This didn't worked in Vietnam, stopped working in Afghanistan after a while, and I don't think will work in Iran.

Since a week after "Israeli" bombs started dropping we only saw prominent liberal Iranian figures(not diaspora) to declare their support to the Islamic Republic. If a far bigger bombing campaign starts(unfortunately looks like it will), it will only push them further to defend their homeland.

His poor fucking son. What kind of world are we living in when genocidal maniacs cannot hold a proper wedding to commemorate their war crimes?

We all need to take a step back and realize that the only way to bring socialistic change in our lifetimes is to be effective.

Speed has done more for the perception of socialism/communism than any of us keyboard warriors. Period.

We need to be able to show how much better life could be even under capitalism with a single Communist party.

P.S.

Not trying to imply what china's economic structure is. I am uninformed what their system really is.
