I don't think "regime change" is going to be a policy of President Trump
Reader comment on item: Minimize Middle East Mistakes
in response to reader comment: "Death to Iran"
Submitted by Michael S, Dec 11, 2016 at 05:57
Hi, Robert
Trump hasn't expressed any interest in regime change as foreign policy. As long as Iran is defanged, it doesn't matter whether its leader thinks he's an ayatollah, a madhi or a god.
