‘We are witnessing a moment where growing numbers of women and girls see death as preferable to living under the current circumstances,’ a UN official has been quoted as saying
I agree. A revolution would be a violent and bloody one. I worry it would still be ineffective. Conservatism is like cancer. The treatment is deadly for both the disease and its victim.
Foreign infervention is almost always the worst possible option.
It only makes sense in the case of active mass genocides (think WWII, Cambodia or Serbia). Toppling an oppresive but stable regime through foreign power always ends in destabilisation and even more suffering to the people.
What if they don’t have the power to topple their oppressors without foreign intervention?
It seems that’s the case for Iran.

Agreed.
Anyone who suggests otherwise needs to look at the very long history of foreign attempts at “intervention” in Afghanistan.
The country was left worse than it was after each of those many failed attempts.

Right.
Let me know when these problems get solved doing something I don’t suggest.
…wasn’t foreign intervention the primary reason why Iran is in this mess in the first place?
That means it’s impossible to intervene with positive results.
Is that what you’re implying? Just say it, lol. But you won’t because you know how stupid it sounds.
