The US launched an attack on Iran, which seems absurd, as the Russian side has stated. But is it true that Washington\u2019s move lacks logic? Trump claims that Tehran was feverishly working on the construction of a nuclear weapon. This narrative inevitably recalls the – ultimately non-existent – \u201cSaddam\u2019s chemical and nuclear weapons of mass destruction program\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As has been observed in recent years, movements on the global geopolitical chessboard are inextricably linked to circumstances, to a sequence of events running parallel in the West and the East.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Russian military operation in Ukraine, for example, could have lasted a few months. It was led to a long-term war through negotiations that were torpedoed, in 2022, in Istanbul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The war in Ukraine, as well as the fact that Russia is having difficulty in it (due to indirect but enormous Western aid to the Zelensky regime), created opportunities for the US \u2013 opportunities in the Middle East.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
With Russia unable to defend its interests in the region, due to the Ukrainian front, the US targeted Syria. They realized that there was a suitable ground to get rid of the \u201cthorn\u201d of Assad, a friend close to Moscow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Information at the time screamed that this was achieved by proxy, using Turkish territory for the invasion that followed. According to analysts, it was a jihadist army that was armed by the US. Regarding the aftermath of Assad’s fall, Washington reportedly promised Ankara that it would play a very important role in it, as part of their cooperation for the change of the Syrian regime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But now everything indicates that the US plan can accommodate only one major player in the Middle East, Israel, which very soon may also end its capital in Syria, concluding a long-term agreement with the Al-Golani regime (known in the world as Ahmed al-Sarra).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The new US goal, namely a powerful Israel that will serve both its own and American interests in the Middle East, with the surrounding dangers now being small, has been gradually taking shape over the last three years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Syria \u201cchanged hands\u201d, Hamas was decimated in the Gaza Strip, while Hezbollah also suffered a huge blow, both in Lebanon and other countries in the Middle East, where Israel killed dozens of high-ranking officers and destroyed several infrastructures of the armed organization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Axis of Resistance, Tehran\u2019s proxies in the Middle East, had already suffered humiliating defeats and very serious losses before Israel\u2019s new attack on Iran \u2013 which is in full swing and is being assisted by Washington. Russia, busy with its own affairs, is simply watching the developments. It is unable to help this important ally of its in the Middle East.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So things have flowed and are still evolving dynamically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After the American bombings with B-2s, Trump repeatedly claims that his country does not aim for regime change in Iran.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At the moment it is not known whether Washington has set such a goal, but it is certain that it would very much like it and that if it escalates its actions against Tehran then we will be talking about an implicit goal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In essence, that is, it will increase the pressure on the Iranian people in order to overthrow the current regime in Tehran from within. With Egypt and Jordan no longer posing threats and Iraq’s missile systems in disarray, the wider region will be a paradise for American games if Iran becomes pro-Western.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On the other hand, the ayatollahs claim that they enjoy the full support of the Iranian people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Today (23\/6), the exiled son of Iran\u2019s last shah offered himself as an interim leader to take over the country\u2019s governance, calling on the West to support regime change with all its might.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Reza Pahlavi, whom his supporters call \u201cthe prince of Iran,\u201d called on the international community to help the Iranian people overthrow Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and his religious dictatorship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This requires, in part, military action to dismantle the regime\u2019s terror apparatus, but also practical measures to support opposition groups with better access to the internet and communications, as well as support for mass strikes, he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He offered amnesty to those working in the state apparatus who defect and help overthrow it, \u201con condition that they commit to uniting with the people.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A new \u201csafe platform\u201d is being created for dissidents and internal opponents to coordinate their efforts to overthrow the dictatorship and contribute to the creation of a \u201cfree and democratic\u201d society, he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pahlavi, 64, has spent the past 46 years outside Iran, following the overthrow of the monarchy by the Islamic revolution in 1979. The Shah’s rule included its own terrorist state security police, and Pahlavi has many critics among opposition activists who do not want to see the return of the monarchy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
