Change of the Iran regime would help lessening the risk of a prolonged war.

From what can be glanced from the news seeping through it seems that the population has been largely ready for it for a while now.

What is this commentary? We literally just attacked them. We punched them in the face. We're doing the war. Not them.

You must be trolling. In case you are not - the US attacked their nuclear research facilities. This is as far removed from attacking "them", as Iranian people, as it gets.

So if China strategically bombed some US weapons research facilities, that would be just fine and normal?

If Al Qaeda had just managed to fly planes into the Pentagon, would we somehow have decided "oh that's not really an attack on us?"

Because of course no Iranian people work at those bombed sites.

??? WTF are you on. If Iran bombs US research facilities it's okay? I don't understand at all.

You're the one who must be trolling. If China bombed American nuclear research facilities, I can't imagine many Americans would agree it's "not an attack on the American people".

We changed the regime in both Afghanistan and Iraq. That worked great at preventing a prolonged war.

This "oh the Iranians actually want to be bombed" stuff is absolutely nonsense.

It's still almost an even split in the US - https://www.natesilver.net/p/trump-approval-ratings-nate-sil...
