Sorry to say this, but I feel sorry for anyone who gets their political analysis from a Squirrel...
This was posted by the Squirrel in the middle of the 12 day imposed war. Suspiciously timed blackpill.
And guess what? The Islamic Republic still stands. Squirrel's demoralizing blackpill was wrong then and it is wrong now.
This misinformed post reeking of orientalism towards Shiism and the system of Wilayatul Faqih clearly doesn't undestand that we are not a cult of personality and that we are advised by God in the Holy Qur'an that when the leader of a divine movement returns to his Lord (be it an actual divinely-appointed figure like a prophet or imam, or a righteous servant of God like an Ayatollah) the people shouldn't "turn back on their heels" (an expression for turning back on our principles and going back to a state of ignorance).
Iran's military capacities still stand and have humiliated the US, especially in the latest rounds where the US has been proven weak without cooperation of "israelis" to cover other parts of Iran. The US airforce is thus limited to the southern regions and is fearful of Iranian air defenses shooting down their aircrafts so they shoot like cowards at weddings from afar. So Iran is not like Syria.
This oddly-timed doomer post by the Squirrel didn't age well at all. No one is perfect and we don't like to split hairs over minor disagreements, but from Squirrel to Richard Medhurst, these types of defeatist rhetoric serves the enemy and shows exactly what kind of worthless "solidarity" these people have.
