KEY FACTS
- A survey done recently by the Public Affairs Alliance of Iranian Americans found that barely 3% of Iranian-Americans favor the current regime, while an additional 8% would welcome a reformed Islamic Republic.
- Among regime opponents, 11% would like to see a constitutional monarchy, while 55% would like a parliamentary democracy.
- To be sure, some pro-regime Iranian “nepo babies” live here, and have done so with an abandon that would get them whipped or worse back in the home country.
