| Says Specifics of US Policy Are Still Under Development Jason Ditz Posted on June 15, 2017Categories NewsTags Iran, Tillerson Speaking to the House Foreign Affairs Committee yesterday, Secretary of State Rex Tillerson was asked about whether or not the Trump Administration’s policy is one of trying to impose regime change on Iran. While Tillerson insisted that the specifics of administration policy on Iran are still under development, he did confirm that the goal remains regime change. Exactly how they expect to pull that off remains to be seen, but Tillerson said the US policy as it stands is to rely on “elements inside of Iran” who can be supported toward the end goal of regime change, with the hope it would be a “peaceful transition of that government.” That’s unlikely, as to the extent US officials have shown interest in supporting “elements” in Iran at all, it’s groups with long-standing links to terrorism like the Mujahedin-e Khalq (MeK). The actual reformists within Iran’s political system tend to be vilified by the US, and even when they do take power, as they have now, US hostility tends to undermine their ability to normalize ties with the West. Actual regime change is not particularly realistic as a goal of US policy, and taking that position has in recent years been done mostly to placate hawks who have been arguing for decades for an outright US invasion. They are kept at least somewhat in line by the dream that some day, there’s going to be one of those classic color-coded revolution to install a pro-US government in Iran. | |
