On the latest episode of Restoring Order, I interviewed an Afrikaner activist to find out what, aside from refugee resettlement, the Trump administration can do to help his people.

In Trump’s first term we struck Iran and took out Soleimani, so I would be surprised if we didn’t drop a few bombs on Iran or lend Israel a B2 before this ends. To be clear, I do not want that level of US involvement. But predictions of a ground invasion a la Iraq are delusional.
So far, Trump has done a good job of limiting US involvement. We’ll see if that changes. But those wary of such involvement are better off making sound arguments against the US bombing Iran than shrieking about boots on the ground.
I am a little concerned about the prospect of regime change. While I’m no fan of the mullahs and think the Iranian people would be better off with a secular right-wing government, regime change is an incredibly complicated and involved undertaking, even if there’s no ground invasion.
Best case scenario: This wraps up soon without direct US involvement. Iran takes a deal w/ no enrichment & its nuclear facilities are greatly damaged. I doubt the mullahs are peaceful in the long run, but there’s always the possibility their regime collapses on its own.
Worst case scenario: US becomes directly involved, terrorist attacks across the West, attacks on US bases abroad, eventually Iranian regime collapses and we’re stuck trying to foster a new regime in the country. I rate this as unlikely but impossible. Still, good to be aware of the risks.
