Col. Jacques Baud: Israel’s Ego Wrote a War Check, But Iran’s Cashing It!

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

1. What were Israel’s main objectives in attacking Iran, and did they achieve them?
2. How did the U.S. involvement in the conflict align with Israeli goals?
3. Did the conflict lead to greater unity within Iranian society?
4. How has the international community responded to the attacks on Iran’s nuclear facilities?
5. What does this conflict reveal about Israel’s national security strategy?

Col. Jacques Baud:

1. Israel aimed to destabilize Iran politically, involve the U.S. militarily, and damage Iran’s nuclear program, but none of these objectives were fully achieved.
2. The U.S. provided minimal support, reluctant to be deeply involved, suggesting a limited alignment with Israeli interests.
3. Despite internal divisions, the conflict strengthened national unity in Iran, even among minority groups like the Jewish community.
4. International institutions like the IAEA failed to respond effectively, highlighting a collapse in global legal and ethical order.
5. Israel’s strategy remains overly militaristic and disconnected from regional realities, making long-term stability unlikely.
