▪️ Economic pressure aimed at making military salaries unpayable
▪️ A direct invitation to Iranian military personnel to step aside
▪️ A loaded historical frame: the Wall collapsed from within, not from outside
The blunt conclusion: in Trump's Washington, the Islamic Republic is treated as "an evil like the Soviet Union" — something to be outlasted and collapsed, not permanently negotiated with.
When a soldier isn't getting paid, how does that message land?
