There's no organised group in Iran or abroad capable of challenging the regime. In such cases only military defeat or internal struggles can bring down the regime or a combination of the two like in the 1917 Russian Revolution while WW-1 was on.Excellent points.
I am just pondering will the current regime after the utter humiliation at the hands of jooz have enough agency and legitimacy to properly enforce its writ in Iran? I expect it to be a slow death of this regime. Its like beating the top dog infront of its pack. Generally these top dogs don't remain leader of the pack for long. Will not the authority of the current regime erode over time?
You could add popular protests & other factors to it but the aforementioned categories are a must without which supplementary events like popular protests would have no meaning.
I'm as much of an amateur as any other guy out here.Since you have some pretty good understanding i expect you to give me an illuminating answer. Did something like that happened with our western pig farmers? I am thinking their current manifestation seems like it to me. Army their have ironclad grip over resources, they use mullah to delulu their awam. I expect the same with current Mullah regime, to regress even more. They will tighten their grip over resources and alienate common folks.
Paxtan is in a way worse shape than Iran. It has no natural resources unlike Iran to exploit. It's population is booming unlike Iran . It's facing two very aggressive secessionist movements unlike Iran.
Add other issues like a falling economy, other internal security challenges like religious fundamentalism which in case of Iran is restricted to the mullahs their lackeys & beneficiaries of the regime, water crisis etc.
The only saving grace is Fauji Foundation is on the good side of the powers that be like the US, unlike Iran. In fact it may not seem so now, but I see the mullahs outlasting Fauji Foundation.
I may be wrong about this but as of the present, this seems true in my assessment.
