Iranian here, you're assuming sanity.

That doesn't work when your opponents pray for death and see martyrdom as victory.

This is genuinely how Shia extremists think. They have nothing to lose and will sacrifice everything and everyone for their cause. They don't care about Iran or Iranians or prosperity of the nation.

Every country that has a opposition diaspora says the same stuff you're saying here. For what is worth, you could be from a family of Savak secret police members.

And frankly that's not how it looks to me.
