Many expected that Washington would take a more active role in supporting anti-government demonstrations.By Vered Weiss, World Israel NewsMany Iranians who oppose the government have grown increasingly frustrated with President Donald Trump, saying they feel abandoned after expecting stronger American backing during recent anti-regime protests and disappointed by the impact of military actions on the country, according to Israel Hayom and social media.The dissatisfaction is being expressed by both anti-regime demonstrators and members of the broader public, who have voiced concerns over economic hardship, damage to infrastructure and the aftermath of recent military operations involving the United States and Israel.A major source of frustration centers on expectations that Washington would take a more active role in supporting anti-government demonstrations.According to the reports, many protesters believed Trump’s administration would take stronger action against the Iranian government’s crackdown on dissent.Following nationwide protests in which thousands were reportedly detained or killed by security forces, some demonstrators said the anticipated American support never materialized.The result, according to the reports, has been growing disillusionment among segments of the anti-regime movement.The reports also indicate that public confidence in the United States has been affected by recent military and diplomatic developments.Some Iranians have expressed anger over the destruction associated with military operations targeting Iran’s nuclear program and regional proxy network, while also blaming the government in Tehran for the country’s economic and political difficulties.Criticism has also extended to the diplomatic arena. According to the reports, trust in American-led negotiations has declined as some citizens argue that repeated promises and diplomatic initiatives have failed to produce meaningful improvements in their daily lives.Social media platforms, including Instagram, have become a forum for complaints from Iranians who say recent developments have brought additional economic hardship and uncertainty.At the same time, the reports suggest that some opponents of the Iranian government increasingly view Israel as a potential force capable of helping bring about political change.This sentiment is attributed to a belief among some regime critics that American policy and the Trump administration have failed to achieve the objectives they hoped would weaken or ultimately topple the government in Tehran.The reports portray a growing sense of frustration among some anti-regime Iranians as military, political and diplomatic developments continue to unfold.The post Iranians frustrated with US for abandoning regime change appeared first on World Israel News.
