I find this really hard to believe. People are sick of the Islamic Republic regime, not the person on the street. If anyone implies the two are the same thing then they're being intellectually lazy but I bet if you pressed you'd still find them capable of nuance. People do have some humanity even if little patience for a terror exporting regime

Fox News et al repeat that their populace chants death to America in the streets, as a means to justify the war to their viewership. It’s not a stretch to assume that a small number of consumers of that media would take that message to heart. Of course I don’t have to make such an assumption, I’ve met them.
