Trump demands Iran’s ‘unconditional surrender’ and says US won’t kill supreme leader ‘for now’ – latest updates
-
So he's threatening political assassination now?
He thinks by killing the Ayatollah it will all be over .... quite naive imo.

Non-participant making demands. Sounds like what he was doing to the Ukrainians.
Trump's a vulture. Let someone else kill it, then feast on the rotting carcass.

Remember the Iranian general he vaporized in his first term? Pigboy's got form.

This isn’t the US’ war, why would Trump be making any demands?
Edit: I just saw that Trump has posted that the US is involved directly with the war.

That means the US is not involved directly with the war.

Well, considering he's had a hard on for nuking Iran since before he was elected the first time...I didn't think he cares.
"But he kept us out of war!!!"
Fucking idiots.

The US has had air supremacy in every conflict it has been in for a long time and it hasn’t won a single one of them. It would topple the Iranian regime with a ground invasion, but air strikes won’t do that. And the US would certainly lose an insurgent war just like it did everywhere else.
Air supremacy, on its own, doesn't win wars. It does, however, lead to massive civilian casualties.
So now the Iranian people will bleed because someone wants the imams gone, just like most of the Iranian people do.

Given that the regime has been around for fifty years, I really doubt that killing the head of state would destroy the state. They have a much deeper bench than that I would assume
The Ba'ath Party was in for almost that long in Iraq. It didn't help them.
Though the Iranian theocracy has more rule by committee, so they're probably more resilient than a paranoid one-man dictatorship.

The Iranian regime are a bunch of cunts but they’ll never surrender. They’ll throw their kids to the wolves before they surrender.
That allows the US to justify their war crimes by saying it’s their fault

They also have decent records of relevant political figures which are in no doubt in the hands of the US.
Seriously, the nazis were able to compile lists of political enemies (suspected to be) in Brtiain 85 years ago.
It's not a stretch to suggest the US knows exactly who is relevant to keeping the regime alive, whom to imprison and whom to kill.
Collapsing a nation is far easier than establishing a new one after all.

He's a paper tiger. He won't commit troops as he's still a draft dodger, afraid of confrontation.
He will chicken out eventually.
