from Dialogue Works
US-Israel stance fuels Iran tensions, blocks diplomacy, risks war.Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:How has the shift in U.S. policy under Trump, influenced by Israel, impacted negotiations with Iran?What is the current sentiment inside Iran following the Israeli attacks, and is there any sign of internal dissent or uprising?How effective has Western-backed Israel been in achieving its objectives, and what are the implications for regional stability?Trita Parsi:Trump initially pursued diplomacy with Iran but shifted to align with Israel’s demands for zero enrichment, derailing negotiations and leading to conflict.There is no significant internal uprising in Iran; instead, there is a strong rallying around the flag, especially against foreign aggression.The mainstream media is promoting a false narrative that Israel is winning, which supports warmongering policies and undermines diplomatic efforts.Ambassador Chas Freeman:Israel seeks not just nuclear disarmament but the complete subjugation of Iran to ensure regional dominance.Both Iran and Israel face credibility issues, but Israel's actions—backed by the U.S.—are the primary source of regional instability.A potential solution lies in a shared regional enrichment program, but meaningful talks can only happen once hostilities begin to wind down.Colonel Wilkerson:The real threat to global stability is the U.S.-Israel alliance, driven by a group of elites aiming to counter China and Russia.Iran is effectively resisting Israel, causing significant strain on Israeli military resources and morale.Escalating this conflict could lead to broader regional or even global war, especially if the U.S. directly intervenes militarily.
