Hopefully he'll be arrested even in Israel eventually.

He'd get away with it, just like Trump in the US.

The Israeli Supreme Court has more respect for the rule of law than the USSC does.

If only there was a never ending war to keep him out of judicial reach.

The Islamic Republic is under a lot of pressure.

It's one of those things where the regime could collapse tomorrow, or it could collapse 40 years from now.

I just would not bet on it lasting 100 years.

I've been hearing that for 40 years.
We'll see but in the battle of things we are constantly likely to see within 40 years, I think we may see commercially viable nuclear fusion first.

It's one those things, isn't it.

I've been hearing about the risk of a global pandemic for my entire life (I'm almost 50).

I'd see reform as more likely than collapse for Iran.

[Grinning_Colossus]

With the system of dual power in Iran, there is potential for reform if the democratic branch can somehow usurp power from the the (formally dominant) theocratic branch.

Pezeshkian recently said that he'd ensure that the police "don't bother" women for just showing their hair-- even though the police are under the command of the Supreme Leader, not the President--and Khamenei didn't say anything. That's minor, but small shifts like that can add up.

[Solmyr]

Weren't there some rumors recently about Khamenei being possibly terminally ill?
