Description

As the battle with Iran continues, both Israel and the U.S. reportedly want a bold leader inside the country to force real change. With Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei reportedly out of commission and most of Iran's old guard gone, the big question is: who's actually running the show and trying to end the conflict? President Trump's statement that he's in talks with a top Iranian official set off rumors that Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, the hardline speaker of Iran's parliament, might be the one negotiating. Trump has now confirmed it, but Ghalibaf says he's not talking to the United States. Military analyst Doran Kempel thinks both the U.S. and Israel hope that Iran's next leader will come straight from the IRGC. "We need to make sure that we demolish all the military infrastructure along the way. We're preparing a friendly general, a friendly general who's probably already in a relationship with the Mossad or the CIA, and when we feel that the IRGC has been weakened sufficiently, this general basically steps up and leads an uprising," Kempel explained. "I don't have inside information. I don't know where we stand relative to that step, but it's probably a matter of a few weeks."
