Scott Ritter: Everything Has Changed, Trump Now Faces a New World with Iran and Russia!

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:What's your assessment of the current tensions between Iran and Israel, and are we heading towards new attacks?Do you believe that Donald Trump would understand the potential for a prolonged conflict with Iran?How effective do you think Israeli intelligence is in influencing U.S. policy towards Iran?Considering past conflicts, how does Iran's resilience compare to that of Iraq and Syria?What are your thoughts on the role of democracy within Iran's political system?Scott Ritter:The tensions are part of a broader U.S.-Israel strategy aimed at regime change in Iran, using the nuclear program as a pretext. Yes, we may see more attacks designed to destabilize Iran.There's little understanding within the Trump administration about the complexities of Iran; they lack genuine knowledge, making informed decisions unlikely.Israeli intelligence has significantly influenced U.S. policy, reverting to flawed models like the Nasrallah model, which assumes decapitation leads to collapse—this won't work in Iran.Iran is more resilient than Iraq and Syria due to its historical unity and national identity, which hasn't been defeated or fragmented.Iran's political system includes democratic elements with elected officials, though it's guided by a supreme leader; this structure provides stability despite external pressures.
