#2 Hi Grom or TW. Here's the text of the article I just posted, as I am unable to enter it.
...................

Lara interviews the Crown Prince and here’s a summary. He says the regime is on the brink of collapse and it’s at the weakest ever. He goes into detail about a variety of hardships. Iranian citizens have suffered tremendously and lost hope. For example while the Persian carpet industry may flourish it’s under rigid control, but other industry's have been decimated. They’re all friends of America just as much as before 1979 and they were the first ones to be targeted by the regime. Thousands of Americans have been killed for their purpose.

His solution is to lead the country to an organized and stable transition. Citizens will vote by referendum to establish the rules, with separation of religion from state. They will be peaceful with all neighbors and especially America.

[FoxNews “My View with Lara Trump,” 6/28/25 - segment begins at 31 minutes and ends at 42 minutes]

Lara interviews the Crown Prince. Here’s a summary. He says the regime is on the brink of collapse and is at it’s weakest. He goes into detail about a variety of hardships. Iranian citizens have suffered tremendously and lost hope. While the Persian carpet industry may flourish it’s under rigid control, while other industrys have been decimated. They’re the friends of America just as much as before 1979 and they were the first one’s to be targeted by the regime. Thousands of Americans have been killed for their purpose.

#4 I remember Saddam drained the marshes somewhere in the late 1990's to get rid of the Marsh Arabs.

Saddam also used gas on several marsh villages which, in his opinion, had not fought bravely enough against the Iranians during that little conflict in the 80's.
