Stop using the reformists as a scapegoat.
Who manipulated the presidential election for this idiot to become the president?
Who created the Jalili-Ghalibaf rivalry? Even the most optimistic reformists didn't think that they would win the election.

Jerusalem Post/US Politics

US lawmakers propose bill to give Israel B-2 bombers, bunker busters against future Iran threat​

The bipartisan bill gives Trump the power to give Israel the power to protect itself against "all contingencies if Iran seeks to develop a nuclear weapon."​

Americans have 19 of them, they’re not going to be giving these to anyone! This is next level stupid. Washington going to give away 10 or 20 percent of their fleet? That’s only 2 to 4 bombers, not going to happen.

You mean a strong president.....we need presidents, not life long leaders....why even get rid of the shah if go and get another? Besides, it's the 21st century....isn't about time we act like a modern country?
Supreme leader......Velayat-e faqih, Assembly of Experts? Why not branches of government like the rest of the world? We need to run the country like a Big corporation....you have a division and a job to do, you can't do it...or you fail to do it, you're OUT! Bring in the next guy. Meritocracy, it worked for Napoleon, it still works in this century. These things are not new ideas....it's truism, all the other ways have been tested through trial and error.
Anyways, the point is....we got caught on the back foot, because we have leadership that doesn't know the enemy, doesn't know the world and geopolitics of the lands outside of the middle east. If they knew, all those guys would've been in safe houses.
Also, how many scientists have been killed in the past 20 yrs? By now a monkey would have learned to protect high value personnel by a special group of highly trained guards....with a refined planning and modus operandi, to move them around and make their schedule and movements unpredictable.
Here's one more tip....get rid of all Western phones and apps, at least on the government personnel phones and computers. Every piece of hardware and software should be vetted by a specialized branch of the intelligence dept.

The problem is the country is way too divided, and the politics are pretty extreme. They call the US “the Great Satan” but still want to make deals with them. Then when the US doesn’t hold up its end, they act shocked. They need to pick one: either stop making deals with the “devil” or stop calling them that. You can’t have it both ways. That’s the first step.

Second, they need to figure out what they actually want to do about the Palestine issue. If they want to get closer to the US, they have to accept that Israel is part of the deal. It’s like marrying someone with a kid—you can’t just ignore the kid. Plus, you can’t expect good relations with Europe if you don’t have good relations with the US, and you won’t get that without dropping the whole anti-Israel, pro-Palestine stance.

Third, they need to decide how they’re going to handle relationships with the Arab states and Turkey. These countries are mostly pro-US and pro-Israel. You can’t keep fighting the West and expect everything to be normal with them.

And then there’s the Russia–China situation. Russia doesn’t really offer us anything, and India has only been trouble. Maybe it’s time to cut India loose completely and get closer to China, while just staying neutral with Russia since they don’t treat us well anyway.

My point is that all these politicians want to do their own thing, but it doesn’t work that way. They need to realize all these policies are connected and have a big impact on each other. That’s why we need a unified strategy, and only a strong leader can make sure everyone sticks to it and the country actually moves in a clear direction.

You know what saddens me so much?
We built a prototype of a CPU based on SPARC-v8 architecture in 1385 (2006), called Aristo. That's where we were 19 years ago. It was designed by Arash Radman, a PhD student in hardware engineering at the University of Tehran. Nobody supported him and he eventually moved abroad, and was hired at Intel.

We had our own distro of Linux called Parsix in 2003 (22 years ago), released by the Sharif University of Technology. Again, it was not supported by the regime and the project failed.

The Ayatollahs have ruined Iran. A lot of people here do not want to accept it, but Iran has been going backwards since 2013. In the last 12 years, each year has been worse than the previous year. We are now the 3rd country in our region in terms of scholarly publications. We used to be the first in the region, growing at a speed that was 11 times faster than the world's average. We wouldn't have had our entire C&C infiltrated if we had invested in our national capabilities.

reformists are the real problem... been reading about gov. changes in IR since 2010

and post ahmedinijad, all gov. have been about negotiations and nothing more!

seems every politician in IR these days has one agenda to go by, 'negotiate with west and have sanctions lifted'..

German and Italian bankers, who control west, will never lift off these sanctions.

your best choice is to seek partnership with China, alone!

Banking cartels are the least friendly people on this planet!

Reformists are the scapegoat. The real problem goes much deeper than just one party.

Ahmadinejad was the last president of Iran that his actions, even though very controversial, made sense.

To be fair, neither SPARC nor Linux were supported by the US government AFAIK. What you needed were local entrepreneurs who took those inventions and commercialized them for the Iranian market and beyond.

The government can help by encouraging entrepreneurship but it may be hard with all the sanctions.

What can be said clearly is that Iran should learn from Yemen, setting aside its pride.
With its overwhelming economic power, industrial strength, and population, how much more trouble would the U.S. and Israel have faced if Iran had fought as bravely as Yemen?
Rather than dreaming about importing non-existent Su-35s or J-10Cs, it is time for Iran to stay grounded and sincerely learn from its friendly nations.
