Iranologist: The strategy of "internal chaos" in Iran 

ArmInfo. There is no doubt that the main goal of the US and Israeli war against Iran was  to plunge the country into internal chaos and, ultimately, to form a puppet government, even if it would lead to Iran's disintegration, as noted by Iranologist Vardan Voskanyan  on his Facebook page.

According to him, the calculated hope was  that serious external  attacks would collapse state structures and trigger a "popular  uprising." Meanwhile, Western media outlets publishing opinions from  within Iran are increasingly reporting significant popular  mobilization around the state. "There are many reasons for this, but,  in my opinion, a crucial factor is that Iranian nationalism has long  been closely intertwined with Shiite ideology, and one of the latest  proofs of this was the content of yesterday's message from the new  spiritual leader of Iran, which can be described as  nationalist-Shiite. Another important factor in consolidation is the  periodic threats from the US and Israel to "destroy Iran," "the  impossibility of Iran maintaining its current position," etc. Such  statements, which do not refer to the country's authorities, but to  Iran as a whole, automatically lead to national unity. The opinion  that the authorities are fighting not for their own throne, but for  the very viability of Iran as a state and a nation, especially when  such a struggle is waged in real conditions, is beginning to prevail  in society," the Iranologist noted.
