Seemingly, the regime&#8217;s goal of attacking the U.S. embassy was to divert the goal of the Iraqi people&#8217;s uprising and the attention that demonstrators received. The uprising\u2019s main slogan was the expulsion of the Iranian regime from Iraq.<\/p>\n<p>In this regard, the mullahs&#8217; regime launched 11 attacks on U.S. troops in Iraq within the last two months. But since the attacks were mostly a case of \u2018testing the waters,\u2019 primarily hitting\u00a0around the bases, the U.S. didn\u2019t\u00a0respond by force. This made the regime even more\u00a0emboldened. During the last attack on December 26 on the K1 base in Kirkuk, a U.S. civilian contractor was killed, and several U.S. soldiers were wounded. The attack was followed by a heavy backlash from the U.S. government, launching an airstrike on seven Iraqi\u00a0Kataib\u00a0Hezbollah garrisons.<\/p>\n<p>Following the bombing and heavy U.S. military response, the regime faced a dilemma. If it had not responded to the U.S. attack, its weakness in the existing balance of power would have resulted in the sudden\u00a0and enormous defection of its forces in Iraq and Iran. On the other hand, the regime had to accept the consequences of responding to this attack.<\/p>\n<p>It seems that the regime\u2019s supreme leader, Ali Khamenei, has chosen the second path due to the recent nationwide Iran protests and the need to maintain his repressive forces. On the other hand, some political observers say Khamenei is also counting on the U.S. president&#8217;s presumed restriction because of the U.S. election year.<\/p>\n<p>This dilemma and a new wave of the crisis have aggravated the regime\u2019s infightings. The proponents of either option accuse the other that the alternative would lead the regime to its destruction and ultimate downfall. Therefore, as the regime enters a new phase of tension with the United States, its crises of imminent downfall, which has entered an irreversible phase after the November uprising, and the uprising of the Iraqi people, has shaken the regime\u2019s pillars of existence. These crises will accelerate the ultimate overthrow of the mullahs&#8217; regime.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Following the&nbsp;attack on the United States embassy&nbsp;in Baghdad by the Iranian regime&rsquo;s proxy forces on Tuesday, December 31, in response to the US airstrike on the&nbsp;Kataib&nbsp;Hezbollah&rsquo;s camps in Iraq and [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":22,"featured_media":213372,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[19],"tags":[178],"class_list":{"0":"post-213371","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-terrorism-a-fundamentalism","8":"tag-save"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
