Meir Javedanfar was born in Tehran and has been teaching at an Israeli university for years. How does he view the impending war between his two homelands? What role does the Iranian people play? And what would he advise Prime Minister Netanyahu?
Mr. Javedanfar, the regime in Tehran wanted to show strength with its attack on Israel. But 99 percent of its drones and missiles were intercepted.
Yes, the fact that so few drones and missiles got through was a humiliation for the regime in Iran. The attack was not a surprise like it was on October 7th. Israel was hyper-alert, its airspace was strictly monitored, and all eyes were on Tehran. Iran miscalculated.
