The United States and Israel expected a rapid internal uprising in Iran to help bring the war to a swift end, but the plan has failed to materialize, The New York Times reported on Sunday, March 23.
According to the report, Israeli and US officials believed that early strikes on Iran’s leadership and infrastructure could trigger mass protests and destabilize the government.
The plan, presented by Israel’s Mossad intelligence agency ahead of the war, envisioned riots and internal unrest that could potentially lead to the collapse of Iran’s leadership.
Over three weeks into the war, no large-scale uprising has emerged, and Iran’s government remains in control, the report said.
US and Israeli intelligence assessments concluded that, while the government has been weakened, it remains intact – with security forces still deterring potential protests.
