Golan said that there was originally a strategic balance when dealing with a senior, aging, and hardline leader, but after eliminating a large number of key figures, Israel has instead inherited a more extreme and violent camp. He believes that from a long-term strategic perspective, Israels situation has deteriorated, and the Netanyahu governments attempt to overthrow the Iranian regime has failed. The US and Israel launched a military operation against Iran on February 28th, resulting in the deaths of Khamenei and several senior Iranian political and military officials. In response, Iran attacked targets within Israel and several US military bases in the Middle East.
