How Iran Falls Without a Single U.S. Boot (Strategy)
Common Sense for America | Iran Strategy: What Comes Next
The Iranian people are ready to fight. But 190,000 armed Revolutionary Guard soldiers stand between them and freedom — and the people have no weapons. So how does this actually end?
Bruce Rutherford breaks down a 5-step strategy for a free Iran that doesn't repeat the mistakes of Afghanistan or Iraq — no invasion, no nation building, no $2 trillion price tag.
What has to happen first:
Why the Iranian army is the key to tipping the balance
How the secret police must be fully dismantled — not reformed
The exile option: strategy, not weakness
How free elections get protected once security forces stand down
What Poland, Hungary, and Czechoslovakia teach us about what comes next
This isn't speculation. It's common sense applied to one of the most consequential moments of our lifetime.
