Ivo Indzhev: If Iran attacks Israel with nuclear weapons, there will be a chain reaction  - 1

Israel has launched a large-scale military operation against Iran. It has struck strategic nuclear facilities, missile bases and key military targets throughout the country. The operation is called “Rising Lion“.

“Israel's official goal is for Iran to give up its nuclear program. It is difficult for the conflict to spread to other countries in the region. Israel took care of that. The Iranian militias in Lebanon were beheaded. The same can be said about the Houthis, who threaten Israel but are far from being able to make Tel Aviv give up the operation“, said journalist Ivo Indzhev, quoted by bTV.

“The ayatollahs have been arming terrorist organizations for years. They helped the Assad regime in Syria. They helped it create chemical weapons. They are supporting Russia's aggression against Ukraine in every way they can. Iran cannot enjoy international support," Injev said.

“Is it possible for the regime to fall - we have yet to find out. During the previous confrontation in Iran, there was joy on the streets and in private homes in the hope that this would lead to the fall of the regime. It is unpopular among the cities and educated people“, the journalist added.

He noted that no country accuses Israel of aggression.

“In diplomatic language, “de-escalation is necessary“ is a way to avoid condemnation. It remains to be seen whether Iran will strike American targets in the Middle East. If they do, it will be bad for them. The Americans failed to influence Iran even after 60 days of negotiations“, added Ivo Indzhev.

According to him, Iran cannot possess nuclear weapons because the regime's doctrine is the destruction of another country.

“Israel is in the role of a defender of itself, but also a defender of the possibility of a nuclear war breaking out by a country that does not hide its desire to ignite it. If Iran attacks Israel with nuclear weapons, this will lead to a chain reaction“, the journalist added.
