1. Excellent Now the show really gets started

A breaking currency & economy ensures every Persian will have a real interest in directly advocating for & truly adjusting Persian policy.

Now we'll see the limits of the regime in terms of maintaining control amid ever rising internal damage and popular unrest.

It will take a touch of time, but the clerics will inevitably be forced to come crawling to the table of the waiting Trump.
2. The regime is not being hit, the people are and that is the

aim of sanctions to mount an uprising against the regime. Just one question, would the good boys, the allies countries be ever held to account for the financial misery they bring on the people, assuming the regime ever changes? I assume it will just be iran's losses and the same "friendly " country will extend credit facilities with a 10% interests to buy their own products... Courtesy of the west
3. Iranian regime - irrational, paranoid, obsessed, consumed
Tim ,   Brighton   (11.05.18)
This Shia Fascist regime would rather sacrifice the economic future of Iran than abandon their 'holy mission' of spreading death and mayhem in the name of Shia domination and supremacy.

Supported by their network of proxy terrorists and militias from Iraq to Yemen, Sudan to Sinai, Gaza to Jordan, Syria to Lebanon, Turkey to Azerbaijan..the list goes on who knows how many HUDREDS OF THOUSANDS of lives could be attributed to their militancy?

And Iran in all the decades since the 'revolution' what have the regime got to show for it? Why is it that prosperity and vast wealth seems only to have favoured the elite leaving the rest to scratch and living and desperate for jobs?

And all that the regime seem to have acheived is more oppression, more death cultism and blood lust, more fanaticism, more corruption, a basket case economy and international detesation and isolation

Will they ever change?

Probably not

comments. There’s two sides here, America, Saudi Arabia, and Israel on one side, and the rest of the world on the other. Dreaming won’t change anything.
In two years everything will be different , but let not get ahead of our selves, we don’t know now what those changes will be. Wait and see.

6. Resumption of sanctions
Sjoerd van der Velde ,   Hoorn Holland   (11.05.18)
Not only sanctions on Iran. Also sanctions and measures on Saudi-Arabia, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Turkey, Iraq. We all know what happened/happens in those countries. Sanctions on the entire "islam" world caliphafe, to end and destroy that, for world-peace for humankind
