It appears Rudy Giuliani wasn’t lying.<\/p>\n

Just a few days after the former NYC mayor and latest member of President Trump’s unexpectedly let it slip <\/a>that “we got a president who is tough, who does not listen to the people who are naysayers, and a president who is committed to regime change [in Iran]”, <\/strong>the\u00a0Washington Free Beacon<\/em><\/a>\u00a0has obtained a three-page white paper being circulated among National Security Council officials with drafted plans to\u00a0spark regime change in Iran<\/strong>, following the US exit from the Obama-era nuclear deal and the re-imposition of tough sanctions aimed at toppling the Iranian regime.<\/p>\n

The plan, authored by the Security Studies Group, or SSG, a national security think-tank that has close ties to senior White House national security officials, including – who else – National Security Adviser John Bolton, seeks to reshape longstanding American foreign policy toward Iran by emphasizing an explicit policy of regime change, <\/strong>something the Obama administration opposed when popular protests gripped Iran in 2009, writes the Free Beacon, which obtained a leaked copy of the circulating plans.<\/p>\n

The regime change plan seeks to fundamentally shift U.S. policy towards Iran and has found a receptive audience in the Trump administration<\/strong>, which has been moving in this direction since Bolton\u2014a longtime and vocal supporter of regime change\u2014entered the White House.<\/p>\n

It deemphasizes U.S military intervention, instead focusing on a series of moves to embolden an Iranian population that has increasingly grown angry at the ruling regime for its heavy investments in military adventurism across the region. –Free Beacon<\/em><\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

“The ordinary people of Iran are suffering under economic stagnation<\/strong>, while the regime ships its wealth abroad to fight its expansionist wars and to pad the bank accounts of the Mullahs and the IRGC command,” SSG writes in the paper.<\/p>\n
