“Freedom is a fragile thing and it’s never more than one generation away from extinction.” What a profound line spoken by President Ronald Reagan. That is the crux of the idea behind changing Iran’s status as a country that threatens the entire free world into a country that will be powerless to blackmail the free world via the offensive use of nuclear weapons and a massive stash of ballistic missiles.
There has never been a country like Iran that is not concerned at all with building up a standard Army to defend itself against it’s neighbors. It simply focuses on two things: offensive capabilities to terrorize it’s neighbors in the Middle East and Europe and a massive army that is focused on terrorizing it’s own population and protecting the dictatorship from it’s own people.
If Iran becomes a relatively free society before 2029, there will be one reason – Donald Trump. If Iran becomes a powerless country that is still a dictatorship, that will also be a major step in the right direction. But everyone now knows that bringing Iran to it’s knees is nothing like doing the same to Venezuela. There will not be a quick surgical strike that will solve a problem in less than one hour. It will probably take months, if not years of sustained economic pressure, coupled with arming insurgents inside of Iran while coordinating with special forces of Israel’s Army and Air Force in order to make lasting change in Iran.
It may very well happen – but probably after the midterm elections in the US and after the general elections in Israel.
