PDB Afternoon Bulletin | March 10, 2026: Intel Bombshell: War Unlikely To Topple Iran’s Regime & Lebanon Turns On Hezbollah

In this episode of The President's Daily Brief: A newly revealed classified U.S. intelligence assessment casts doubt on one of the central assumptions behind the war with Iran — that military force could trigger regime change in Tehran. According to the report, even a large-scale campaign may not be enough to topple the country’s entrenched clerical and military leadership. Lebanon’s president makes a surprising diplomatic move, calling for direct negotiations with Israel while openly blaming Hezbollah for dragging the country into a war that serves Iran’s interests. The proposal is raising eyebrows in Washington and Jerusalem, where officials question whether Beirut can actually disarm the Iran-backed group.
