US Regime Change in Iran: Gulf States Prefer Stability Over Chaos
The article highlights the Gulf states' preference for a predictable, if challenging, Iranian government over the catastrophic unknown that would follow another US 'liberation' project. This echoes the 1953 CIA-orchestrated coup against Iran's democratically elected Prime Minister Mohammad Mosaddegh, installing the Shah and setting the stage for future decades of anti-American sentiment. One might
wonder if Washington ever bothers to read its own history books, or if the blank slate of war is just more appealing. While Al-Monitor frames this as a pragmatic oil calculation, the subtext is clear: another US-engineered regime change would unleash violent chaos, impacting everyone but the architects safely ensconced in Washington. Meanwhile, reports from entities like MintPress News have
documented how Western media often conflates legitimate Iranian protests with foreign-backed agitation, blurring the lines to manufacture consent for intervention. Is it 'protest' when foreign-funded agents burn mosques and intentionally kill police officers, firefighters, and civilians, as happened in 2022? Or is it terrorism amplified to serve a policy agenda?
