Yes.

10 million Iranians live outside Iran. They want a normal country again.

Later today, I'm sure footage from LA, Toronto, London, Stockholm will be up.

It’s great, they can go back home now and get on with building a new state.

They're not going to have a normal country. The United States under Trump isn't interested in a democratic Iran. They want a dictator they can control.

I think you’re right that it would be a puppet state under trump. But in three years it will be a puppet state under somebody else! And maybe that somebody would relinquish the strings.

Not disagreeing with you, but US-controlled dictators have better track record of not killing thousands of protesters or just random people in own populations.

Not perfect option, but still is an improvement even from your positiom.
