Dialogue Works

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

1. What has happened in Iran, and why did the U.S. support Israel's plan to attack Iran?
2. Did the Israeli attack achieve its intended goals?
3. How is Europe responding to the situation, and why are they framing Iran negatively?

Larry C. Johnson:

1. The U.S. was directly involved in planning the attack—sharing intelligence, supplying weapons, and coordinating with Israel. Trump openly admitted knowing about the attack in advance.
2. No, the attack did not achieve a decisive victory. Similar to past conflicts, initial claims of success often fade as reality sets in. Iran suffered damage but remains capable of retaliation.
3. Western media and leaders are engaged in an organized campaign to demonize Iran. They use misinformation, political bias, and historical distortions to justify Israeli actions.

Professor Morandi:

1. Iran expected attacks on military or nuclear sites but not the targeting of senior officials. This was a major miscalculation. New commanders are now in place, and Iran will respond severely.
2. No, the full impact is unclear. There’s a lot of fake news and psychological warfare against Iran, including AI-generated content. Some reports are false, while others confirm real damage and casualties.
3. European statements are misleading and politically motivated. Iran is acting within international law regarding its nuclear program. These countries are complicit in supporting Israel’s actions.
