    I’m Iranian, living in Iran. He is right.

    A very big portion of people think trump or netanyahu’s attack and war will save them from the islamic republic.

    When people are angry, hungry, getting killed, hopeless and poor, we can’t expect their brains to work properly.

      It’s by design though. US policy has destroyed the Iranian middle class (you know, the exact people who would otherwise do the regime-changing). The whole point is to cause desperation and despair which they can take advantage of. It’s the same method that was used against castles and city-states in the middle ages.
