Khamenei Killed? Failed to Seize Iran — Israel's Latest Strategy
Israel frames its war against Iran in the same way it frames wars against non-state actors. It wants the world to accept the argument that Iran, a UN member state with more than 90 million people, is akin to a terrorist organisation, which is why it talks about hunting leaders and not letting Iran choose a new Supreme Leader.
Israel understands that killing Ayatollah Ali Khamenei would not change the state of affairs. However, it insists that only once Iran is friendly, Iran that is pro-Israel, is created, or the conditions for that are ripe, will Israel stop the bombing.
There are estimates that Israel will continue bombing Iran for at least another two weeks, based on the latest information from the Israeli military.
The Israeli military hopes the bombardment will soften the situation and pave the way for a popular uprising against Tehran’s government.
