    Out of all the feasible outcomes from today’s point of view, Pahlavi might be the least bad one, which is why I don’t think its going to happen.
    More feasible seems to be a situation in which the IRGC&co continue with their occupation of the country and USA/Israel strike some kind of deal with a new ayatollah (which for now seems to be the old one’s son, go figure). Either that or the conflict continues for X time and it gradually simmers down, no deal struck.
    Very unfortunate reality for Iranians, I’m afraid.

          politicians in Brussels recognising that it is Iranians who should choose their new leaders, and not the European Union’s job to endorse specific contenders.

            Seriuse question, do you always read all articles with a stopwatch next to you, you are the first person I meet now who does this, reason?
