Five academics and former diplomats on U.S. strikes, Iran and stability
Briefly

The U.S. military's recent strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities have altered the strategic dynamics in the Middle East, highlighting fractures in the coalition aimed at countering Iran. Analysts suggest that the airstrikes signify a move from mere diplomatic alignment to military collaboration among the U.S., Israel, and Saudi Arabia. Experts are divided on the implications of these strikes, with calls for regime change contrasted against warnings of diplomatic risks and potential instability in the region, reflecting competing visions for the future of Middle Eastern diplomacy.
Only regime change in Iran can bring 'peace and stability,' according to John Bolton. He stated that destroying Iran's nuclear program requires breaking nuclear production links.
Analysts note that the U.S. airstrikes on Iran signal a new phase of direct, operational collaboration among the U.S., Israel, and Saudi Arabia in countering Iran.
