🇮🇷✡️ Fallout from Iran regime change flop continues to spread through Mossad’s top ranks Turns out ex-Mossad boss David Barnea and his deputy weren’t the only ones thrown under the bus over the Iran debacle.
New Mossad director Roman Gofman’s purge steamroller continues to chug along, this time ousting the head of the agency’s Iran desk, and the boss of its intelligence directorate.
👉 Israel’s Channel 12 says the officials were two key “architects” behind a plan to destroy Iran from within using mass protests and minority groups. That plan was discussed by Netanyahu and Trump in February in the weeks leading up to US-Israeli aggression.
A source told Haaretz Gofman did not fire the officials over the regime change idea itself, given that he was “one of the key supporters of the plan to change the regime in Iran when he served as Netanyahu’s military secretary.” Rather, “he decided on the dismissals in order to help Netanyahu distance himself from responsibility for the fact that the Iranian government did not fall.”
📌 Mossad’s plans entailed the use of Kurdish forces to launch a large-scale insurgency backed by US and Israeli airpower. The plan flopped, with Iran’s Kurdish populations remaining loyal, and the IRGC pummeling militant staging areas in northern Iraq with the help of its local allies.
The Mossad reshuffle is the latest indication that the spontaneous “anti-regime protests” that kicked off in late 2025 were actually a foreign intel op from start to finish.
It’s also a surprise peek behind the curtain showing how the seemingly formidable and omnipotent Mossad – which has been planning to topple Iran for generations, is weaker than previously imagined in confronting a competent, steadfast enemy whose elites aren’t filled with greedy and cowardly sellouts.
