Why as an Iranian living in the US should I see these news everyday? We Iranians at this point want to crush the regime on our own. There was a time that Iranians wanted the intervention of the US. But after all the economical degradation, this is no longer on the menu.

The most important thing is that the logics of purity and essentialism are no longer viable. The solution however is to not think about Iran as a fundamentally fragmented mess, but to see it as a mess which unified despite the fragmentation.

That was part of my point actually, That the unification won't happen unless it's behind dead bodies (as you can tell by the events of these last 4 days since our initial discussion). The "society" in the sense of a modern, nationalistic entity doesn't exist here.
