The recent US-Israeli imposed war on Iran was a gamble for regime change that has dramatically backfired. In this incisive interview, we are joined by Dr. Sara Larajani, a distinguished researcher from the University of Tehran, to analyze the stunning aftermath of the Iran-Israel conflict. 00:00 Introduction 03:34 The Decline of US Global Dominance 06:50 US Diplomacy Exposed: Negotiations as a Smokescreen for War 09:50 The UN's Weakened Position and European Double Standards 16:35 Iran Suspends IAEA Cooperation Over Leaked Secrets 20:39 Israel's Unmonitored Nuclear Arsenal vs Iran's Program 23:52 Iran's Military Response Shatters Israel's Invincibility Myth 28:19 Israeli Attack Backfires, Creating Internal Unity in Iran 31:53 Historical Context of Iranian Resistance to Foreign Invaders 34:57 Western-Backed Opposition Commits Political Suicide 38:11 Rise of a Multipolar World: Iran, China, and Russia 41:31 Future Predictions for West Asia and Global Powers What were the true objectives of the 12-day imposed war, and why did they fail so spectacularly? Dr. Larajani explains how the aggression, far from causing internal unrest, united the Iranian people and strengthened the state. We delve deep into the blatant Western hypocrisy, where international laws were ignored to protect an aggressor, shattering the credibility of institutions like the UN and IAEA. This discussion also explores how Iran's powerful military retaliation completely shattered the myth of Israeli invulnerability, revealing critical flaws in its expensive, Western-backed defense systems. Most importantly, we examine the accelerated decline of US global dominance. This conflict has undeniably pushed Iran into a closer, more comprehensive alliance with Russia and China, signaling a definitive shift toward a multipolar world order. Join us as we unpack the geopolitical shifts, the erosion of Western diplomacy, and the new reality of power in the Middle East.
