Apparently, allegedly, the Trump administration tried to get some small arms to the people of Iran so they could more effectively rebel against the theocracy.
Also, apparently and allegedly, they used Kurds as intermediaries to move the guns.
Apparently and allegedly, these same Kurds kept the guns for themselves.
Um.
Duh.
They've no reason to believe that the people of Iran, once the theocracy is deposed, will be any different than the Ottomans about letting them have an independent existence.
But I can see them trying to secede once the theocracy is weak enough.
There is a vast part of the world who love their kings, sheiks or mullahs. The names change but they still want their benevolent ruler to tell them what to do.
