-The US sanctions against Iran are specifically designed, by admission of US officials, to cause mass misery and social discontent to the point of instigating protests. This is a well-worn playbook for US regime-change operations.
-The unrest in Iran started because merchants were suffering due to the sanctions, which have caused the exchange rate to deteriorate. Merchants closed their shops and protested the economic conditions.
-US officials and Israeli outlets have confirmed that Mossad agents are active among the protestors, presumably to generate anti-government riots. Reports also indicate that individuals among the rioters are armed and shooting/killing police.
-Early on, Trump was very quick to announce that the US was planning to attack the country if the government cracked down on rioters.
-It is very likely that the US and Israel will seek to use the protests, and the massive Western media story that has been whipped up around it, to manufacture consent for a US/Israel military invasion and coup.
-This has been an objective of the US and Israel for many years. Irrespective of popular sentiment in Iran, we are watching a planned regime-change operation unfolding.
-It is crucial to remember that the US does not care about the people of Iran, any more than it cares about the people of Palestine. The US does not care about democracy, or human rights. It wants to destroy the Iranian government because Iran insists on sovereignty and refuses to accept US/Israeli hegemony in the region.
-The US wants to do to Iran what it did to Iraq, Libya and Syria: totally destroy any semblance of sovereignty, destroy the country's industrial capacity, and create chaos and civil war.
-Their ostensible objective is to (re)install a monarchy that will function as a puppet regime of the US, run by Reza Pahlavi, the son of the former dictator (himself installed and backed by the US) who was known for brutal political repression, including torturing and executing political opponents.
-All this under a narrative of bringing "freedom" and "democracy". You can't make it up.

-By the way, to underline how the US cares *zero* about democracy in Iran, remember that the the first US-backed coup in Iran (1953) was against Mohammad Mosaddegh, who was democratically elected and widely popular.
-The US wanted to get rid of Mosaddegh for the very same reason they now want to get rid of the current government - because Mosaddegh believed that Iran should have economic sovereignty and resource sovereignty.
-After the 1953 coup, the US installed a dictatorship (again, so much for democracy!). The current government in Iran arose from the revolution that fought to get rid of that dictatorship.
