Agree that this is more far complex than US wanting access to their oil. There are obviously potential downside issues with the down fall of Iran's current regime. However, @956 Worldwide spelled out really well what could happen if they got nukes. Beyond that, while many disagree with it occurring, I firmly believe in the potential for the people of Iran to produce a functional, modern country with far more individual freedoms. Is it likely, maybe not, but possible which is positive. Next, it definitely pulls an ally out of the Russian rolladex which is good for Ukraine and bad for Russia. I'm absolutely in favor of that part. Who knows maybe it is a dominoe that aids in Putin's demise, we can only hope. Finally, the people of Iran may hopefully have some autonomy over their oil, I don't care if it comes to the US, but I hope they price gouge China for being quiet supporters for the current Iranian regime. Because fuck China.
