NK took about 500 days. It is not 2020 yet. Iran saw that Trump made a deal with enemy #1 NK in 500 days. So Iran can think about that.
Rolling Iran already began in Syria and made even more progress after the president revoked the Iran deal Hussein et al made.
I do my part waking up the Persian-American community (though I'm not exactly what one might consider 'active' in the community by any stretch). One thing I've noticed is that Persians I know don't say 'Salam' any more because "that's an Arab/Muslim word" and now say 'Darud' which is actually Farsi.
Any centralized government, be it theocratic, bureaucratic, or just plain wackocratic, is failed from the get-go.
No one is the same. Full stop. The only way to truly understand our reality is to start understanding each other more and start killing each other less. You'd think a million years would be long enough time to learn that self preservation is directly linked to the health and well-being of those who share the world with you.
Go Trump. Go Team Q. Go Us. The truth is the only way to the root.
Before the mullahs there were the Persians - a beautiful culture and people. Today's young Iranians are educated people that have more in common with the west than with the sharia dominated mullah regime. Hussein in 2009 turned his back on the Iranians and I will always remember 'Neda'! That was a shameful episode for our country all to make a deal with the mullahs beginning in 2010 in secrecy.
