The potential new leader was going to be a setup, because I recall that he was accused of being a part of the students who were a part of the takeover of the American embassy. He was also called a Holocaust denier, and I am sure that once they get him in, they would turn against him as they did Saddam Hussein. These people will use and discard anyone to their own means
The reason for attacking Iran was amongst other reasons the ballistic missile threat. Sima obviously forgot about this - Bibi said that one of the reasons for attacking as soon as possible was that Iran was developing thousands of missiles which would have overwhelmed the Israeli defense system
The interviewer seemed to arrive with a predetermined conclusion, but Sima handled him well. She was candid about her doubts while rightly refusing to call a plan a failure when its central element was stopped before execution.
She also rejected the claim that Israel dragged Trump into war and clearly explained that Iran’s nuclear program, missiles and proxies all stem from the same revolutionary regime.
Listen to her, she is clear and knowledgeable and logical within the limits of what is public.
