ran's leadership is completely in denial of reality. It is Israel, it is Netanyahu, that will determine Iran's fate.
What is the point of negotiations with the IAEA, the US, or the EU? They will fully support Netanyahu if he attacks Iran, defending Israel with their vast air power, providing aerial refueling, and supplying weapons as if they were unlimited.
Any negotiation is futile unless Netanyahu says he will spare Iran, and that is 100% impossible.
The reformists actually understand this, but they are simply in denial.
It is not impossible. Trump is a populist. Even if he is compromised, his voters have his ear. At the very least, Iran could distance him from participating in Netanyahu's wars. You need to give your adversary what they want... just not the way they want it.
It's worth a shot. Just give up enrichment, wait until he leaves office. It is a bitter pill to swallow, but other countries have negotiated under far worse circumstances. Get several billions in sanction relief, reduce tensions a little bit, deal with Israel one on one. Stabilize the economy, dump a few billion back into the air force and focus on one or two projects, use F5, Owj, Sofre Mahi, as base.
Send officials to CNN and Fox news and get a message across to Americans, MAGA especially. Half of them are turning on Israel already. Say what you want about Zarif, but he did a great job painting Iran as the victim, and appealing to more liberal minded western audiences.
Israelis and Neo-cons see Iran regime change as "kill the supreme leader and senior leadership" and the regime will end. Islamic Republic is not a single unitary one party dictatorship; it is an institution. There are factions and institutions that divide power. They think the subsequent power vaccuum would tear the country apart. It is possible, I am not naiive. But to be honest, Iranians are not arabs, who turn against themselves at the flip of a coin. I trust they can rebuild government. If Israel, attacks, then even easier for Iran.
Every country that they toppled has had governance concentrated around 1 single authority i.e Saddam, Gaddafi, Assad etc. This led to a complete anarchy that I don't expect to occur in Iran.
Put together younger, smarter minds. People from Sepah/Artesh step up, put together a technocratic council, rebuild the country. There are people like this on the principalist and the reform side.
At least Iran would emerge from this as the only country to have smacked Israel around and survived.
