This Brilliant Move by the Iranian People Against Their Oppressors May Just Make Your Day

We've seen Israel and the United States take out a lot of Iran's leaders. The two countries have also been pounding away at their military capacity. They've decimated their Navy, and they've taken over their skies.

"Never before has a modern, capable military, which Iran used to have, been so quickly destroyed and made combat ineffective," Secretary of War Pete Hegseth declared.

So on one level, they've already largely succeeded in taking down the military.

But how do you help the people along in rising up and overthrowing their oppressors?

There's a new report that shows the Iranian people may have figured out a brilliant answer to that question, with the help of Israel.

Israel has been relying in part on target information sent by ordinary Iranians for strikes carried out during the current war with Iran, The Wall Street Journal reported on Thursday.
The report said this was the case on Wednesday night, when an Israeli Hermes UAV struck Basij checkpoints in Tehran, citing a senior Israeli security official.
The official said Iranians on the ground have been transmitting information in Persian through Israeli social media accounts. According to the report, the information is first verified and vetted by Israeli authorities, and action is taken only after it is found to be accurate.

The Basij are the security force primarily engaged in the repression of the people. They've helped maintain the mullahs in power over the years. Imagine what it must be like after years of being oppressed, you can now call in a strike on the people who may have killed your friends and your family members. Crowdsourced air support for a revolution.

This is a brilliant move. Not only does it take the oppressors out, it encourages the resistance on the ground, and it also has to have the Basij cowering in their boots. It's likely to result in more defections from their ranks. Now, of course, you have to check and make sure the identification of the checkpoint is correct, which is what the Israelis are doing. But it's pretty easy to identify a Basij checkpoint versus other kinds of traffic, I would think.

Their "Supreme Leader," Mojtaba Khamenei, can't even go out in the street. "Cardboard Mojtaba" hasn't been seen since the start of Operation Epic Fury; it's not even clear that he's alive. If Israel and the U.S. are taking out everyone from leaders to the Basij forces on the street, you have to think that the regime is not going to last long.
