IMO, what we need to do at this point is:
1) Take out anti-air defenses and ballistic missile sites (to prevent retaliation against Israel and US bases in Iraq)
2) bomb IRGC facilities
3) air-drop weapons for the protesters - we have both CIA and Mossad people on the ground there who could co-ordinate and distribute such weapons.
and 4) maybe do a few strafing runs against IRGC/ police/ military masses arrayed against the citizens, just to give the hardliners something to think about.
Taking Khameinei and company out would, in my mind, follow after giving the citizens complete control of the streets. Maybe keep an eye open for choppers heading north without their transponders on, and blot those out of existence too, just in case... I maen, if they're flitting around without transponders, they MUST be up to no good, right?
I think the priority ought to be giving the citizens the streets, because the lackeys they are up against are the more present danger than the "leadership". The "leadership" ain't got the balls to shoot at the people themselves, so they can wait for mop-up operations. In other words, I think priority should be working upward from the most dangerous (to the citizens) at the bottom to the most ruthless at the top.
