00:00The conversation I just had with Len there, he is adamant that the regime in Iran is basically now on its last legs in some respects.
00:12He doesn't think that it can withstand what it's going to face.
00:16Would you agree with that analysis and that sentiment?
00:20Is the regime in Iran now in real deep trouble of survival?
00:24There are observers out there who argue that the actual objective of the Israeli operation now is regime change more than just destroying nuclear sites.
00:40The decapitation strike, it is a strike that's aimed at causing an imbalance to shake the foundation of the regime
00:52and to try to spread some sort of a chaos.
00:59And the continued waves of airstrikes that's now targeting the military infrastructure,
01:08and we are waiting, we're anticipating to see a prolonged wave of strikes over the next few days
01:20that where the targets are going to expand and will likely start including some civilian infrastructure.
01:29And this is all going to undermine the rhetoric of the regime.
01:35That's very important.
01:36The regime using a rhetoric for several years to present itself and create this big halo of I'm a superpower that nobody dares to attack me.
01:50I have formidable military capabilities that I can wipe out the Israeli.
01:57I am an equal power to the U.S.
01:59And now the people in Iran are discovering that this is just a paper tiger.
02:05We are not even able to shoot down one Israeli plane to defend against all these strikes.
02:13So all this narrative that the regime has been selling to the people has collapsed.
02:20Again, the narrative of having all these powerful proxies and influence everywhere also collapsed in the previous months.
02:28So this is going to now empower the opposition within Iran and is going to, with more strikes happening,
02:37and if possible, we see strikes against infrastructure where people are going to feel that there is no power,
02:45there is no gas and fuel and so forth, and things are being degrading every day.
02:51We're going to start seeing more movement in the street that could make the situation implode from inside.
02:58This is what the regime fears.
03:01And I think this is what Trump and his team are betting on,
03:06that this fear of a regime change will drive decision makers in Iran to move to do a deal quickly,
03:15because their priority is always regime survival.
