In full harmony, President Donald Trump and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu met this Wednesday to discuss "three major" options to defeat the Iranian terrorist regime. A senior Israeli official indicated that new ideas were presented at the summit, including a land blockade against Tehran, in a conversation described as "clinical".
"This was a very, very serious, cerebral conversation", highlighted the source from the New York Post. The leaders considered three lines of action: securing a good agreement, tightening the economic blockade around Tehran, and expanding the military campaign.
On the diplomatic front, Israel believes that the most open member of the Iranian regime to negotiate is Chancellor Abbas Araghchi, described as a "realist" despite his Islamic ideology. "I'm not sure the difference lies between ideologues or moderates; it's more about the realists who understand that, over time, their regime will suffer from the continuation of sanctions," the official noted.

Maximum pressure against the regime
Israel believes that if diplomacy is combined with very strong military pressure, the chances of forcing Tehran to sign an agreement that includes the total reopening of the Strait of Hormuz and an explicit renunciation of its nuclear program are high, although nothing is guaranteed while the terrorists of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard continue to attack U.S. forces.
Suffocating the already battered economy of the regime could be the best tool to achieve this goal."There are ways to deprive [Iran] that have not been attempted," said the source. "There are ways to pressure them over and over again while negotiating at the same time." One idea that has been discussed is to combine the ongoing naval blockade with a land blockade that isolates the theocracy from all global trade.
Furthermore, the aforementioned official believes that the possibility of the United States and Israel arming and empowering the Iranian people to overthrow their government is not entirely ruled out even though this task has not yet materialized due to operational failures. In fact, Netanyahu has already proposed ways to advance this collapse of the Islamic regime.
