President Trump's remarks that the shooting down of an American drone was a mistake and probably not intentional could have damaging consequences for multiple reasons. This sends the wrong message to the regime and its allies, as Supreme Leader Khamenei may feel assured that Iran's military deterrence is fully established and the US will make similar decisions in future.
In a recent Twitter survey, 85% of 8,638 participants considered the National Iranian American Council (NIAC) the “enemy of the Iranian people.”
