There are three possible outcomes:

Best: The Islamic Republic survives this war.
Bad: Iran is broken up along ethnic lines.
Worst: The racist and violent puppet monarchy is restored.

I want the IR to survive but if the Persian chauvinist monarchy comes to power then it will be hell for minorities in Iran and it is better off broken apart.

It looks bleak at times, specially after what the West did to Gaza, but Iran isn't Gaza and if Afghanistan survived a regime change so should Iran.
