The author argues that America and Israel must keep fighting Iran until they completely overthrow the government there. He says Iran has been our enemy for decades, was about to get nuclear weapons, and the only way to stop them is to finish what we started.
Conclusion
The ongoing U.S.-Israeli military campaign against Iran must continue until complete regime change is accomplished, regardless of duration or cost
Premises
- Iran has been America's enemy since 1979, responsible for numerous terrorist attacks including the Marine barracks bombing, Khobar Towers, and embassy bombings that killed Americans
- Iran was on the verge of developing nuclear weapons and would certainly use them against Israel, Europe, and the United States
- The military campaign has already achieved significant success, killing Ayatollah Khamenei and 30+ advisers while destroying Iran's navy
- Iran continues to pose an active threat by launching drone strikes against neighboring countries and closing the Straits of Hormuz
- President Trump's demand for unconditional surrender was immediately rejected by Iran's remaining government
- Stopping the campaign before achieving regime change would constitute a failure of the president's duty to keep Americans safe
Assumptions
- Military force is the only viable solution to the Iranian threat
- Regime change will eliminate Iran's threat to regional and global security
- The current Iranian government is irredeemably hostile and cannot be negotiated with
- American casualties and regional instability are acceptable costs for achieving regime change
- The U.S. has the right and responsibility to forcibly change foreign governments
