Iran can survive the war without regime change, they have infinite Ayatollahs, america just needs to chill out with the "bomb children and commit war crimes and being lead by the great satan and pedophiles" stuff.

> Iran doesn’t need to be a regime change war.

It doesn't need to be a war at all.

However, it is a war, and Trump has declared the only acceptable end is unconditional surrender and Trump himself having a say in the new leadership, so it is a regime change war (but, yes, completely unnecessarily so.)

The US (following Israel’s lead) offensively invaded another country. Nothing Iran could have said about America would make it look more like the Great Satan than what it has done itself.

But chill out, Americans say. We only demand that the Ayatollah (or any other Ayatollah) doesn’t exist/are dead. Why do you have to be so, like unchill about it?
