    Hopefully once the theocracy is utterly destroyed and it’s leaders get the Ghaddaffi treatment, Iran can become a socialist state. Critical support to my Persian comrades overthrowing their oppressors.

      It’s clearly a color revolution with heavy Mossad and CIA influence. The “Ghaddaffi treatment” ruined Libya, there’s no chance of this turning into a socialist state right now.

        I don’t imagine the system following this would be worse ideologically to a socialist than a theocracy. Surprised more aren’t happy about the unrest as an opportunity for socialists. Not sure why the hesitancy. Can’t be any love for their current theocratic system.

      Oof. The Gaddafi assassination was bad for Libya and it was done for the financial interests of the western elites, not for the sake of the people of Libya.

      That’s the problem. It’s not like Iran is a great system full of equality and democracy, but usually when you see interventionism in situations like these it’s not good for the people of those countries.
