It very much looks like the Iranian people have rallied around the flag and are ready to resist the Americans. If they put boots on the ground, it won't be another Iraq but another Vietnam. Worse, even.

    I hope you're right. Although that Pahlavi fellow scares me. I'm not aware of how much support he truly has, but I hope it's super low.

    I'm not the most informed person about this, but I think I'm more informed than average. To me, it looks like Pahlavi has lost whatever legitimacy he's built up among the anti-government side in Iran.
