I don't think the war is a good idea, and I'm reluctant to recommend outcomes to a culture different from mine.

That said... if it turns out the Pahlavi can bring about an Iran that makes most of its people reasonably happy and free, I'm all for it.

I do my best to speak about my own political views rarely here, mostly when they're important context to what I'm trying to convey.

Yeah, that's where I am. I'm hoping it works out that way because that's the best path toward a free and happy Iran, not recommending it as a course of action :)
