QUESTION: Iran has been a revolutionary religious state that has sponsored terrorism. What do you think is the solution?

ANSWER: This ideal situation would be a counter-revolution within Iran to remove this religiously dominated government since the 1979 revolution that overthrew the Shah and began with the American hostage crisis. There are a lot of Iranian businessmen who would love to return to Iran. It is a country that is twice the size of Texas and also has tremendous resources. I fear that this attempt at regime change runs the risk of (1) instigating a holy war that will tear Europe apart, and (2) it runs the risk of bringing in China and Russia.
We have to tread very carefully. Trump has said, “We now have complete and total control of the skies over Iran,” and he has called for Iran’s “unconditional surrender.” He has also stated bluntly that the United States knows “exactly where” Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei is hiding—calling him an “easy target” but saying he would not be killed “at least not for now.”
