War reshapes Iran's regime prospects as analysts warn of longer conflict

TL;DR Summary
Two analysts assess the Iran war: Tehran’s new leadership signals continued hard-line control via the IRGC, while the US‑Israel campaign has degraded Iran’s current power but could accelerate its efforts to rebuild deterrence and its nuclear/missile programs. Iran appears domestically fragile amid protests, complicating politics, and a military victory may not translate into political success. Debates over whether the US should declare victory and withdraw versus continuing pressure reflect divergent views on the endgame; if the regime endures, it could become more repressive or pursue a recalibrated deterrence, shaping future US‑Iran policy.
