No air war has changed a regime. The US government knows this. Trump knows this and never had regime change as an objective. Why are you saying that regime change was an objective, and how do you think it was going to happen in an air war when no air war has caused a regime change before?

> Trump knows this

This statement is very rarely true.

Trump was talking about the protests there and that the US would help them. And we kept killing Iranian leadership lol.

Why are you taking what the Trump admin says at face value, anyways? Are you still a fool after all these years? This is like "fool me a 10,000th time" by now haaha

Little correction: Trump has a different objective every second day, and at some point there was (also) regime change on the menu. Might come again, I don't know.

No air war has ever tried to change a regime. The fact of the matter is, we don't know what will happen next. There could very well be a civil war.
