Yesterday, at the behest of the Iranian regime, Russian President Putin called President Trump. In Trump and Putin's own words, the conversation went well.

Putin offered to mediate the situation between Iran and Israel. In fact, it is now being reported that Putin called the Iranian leadership after the call to inform them the very existence of the Mullah's regime was in danger, reported Israel Hayom.

Reuters reported -- the scope of the attacks, the choice of targets, and the statements of Israeli leaders all show that, in addition to eliminating Iran's nuclear threat, Israel also set itself the goal of overthrowing the Iranian regime.

Regime change would be the best outcome of this conflict, for the Israelis and the West, and for the Iranian people.

We have long advocated at AFP/CDM for regime change from inside Iran without a war; but, now that we have a war, and the Iranian regime is weakened, this opportunity should not be wasted.

The regime should be removed, not with American bombs, but with support for elements within Iran to gain control.

This is something that has for some reason not been embraced by Western leadership. We think the reason for that history is that Obama, Biden, etc. were in bed with the Iranian regime.

We hope it will be now be the way forward.

The Iranians can take back their country with American support.

No more American blood and treasure needs to be wasted in the Middle East, no matter what the Neocons want.
