Let’s see if this leads to 1) a planned succession, like in Venezuela, 2) a secular, Ataturk-style revolution, or 3) complete civilizational collapse in Iran. I would give it 90/10/0.01 percent odds for those three possibilities.
Will the IRGC sink ships in the Strait of Hormuz? Will they set the Saudi oil fields ablaze? All I know is that somewhere in hell, Dick Cheney and Henry Kissinger are smiling up at us.
They’re likely feeling very emboldened by Venezuela (which, in fairness, I think most people predicted wouldn’t go the way it did).
Imagine if Venezuela sent missiles at Miami
Yeah thats what I’m thinking. They’re really feeling themselves after some successful imperialism.
