Regarding Iran's future:

You are describing Libya scenario, not a 'lived prosperously ever after'. There is no credible opposition in Iran to take the mantle.

No. Iran has almost all of its population part of the same ethnic group, which in Libya it was not true: all the tribes started fighting each other.

It does not an established opposition because the current regime has the habit of killing anyone it doesn't like or goes against the official line. Now there is a chance for opposition to form.
