"Iran’s missile and drone attack on Israel over the weekend was a game-changing
escalation that requires some game-changing rethinking on the part of Israel
and its most important ally, the United States. I call it “the three-state
solution.”
It begins with the recognition that there is probably zero hope for any
resolution of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict or the Israel-Iran conflict
without leadership change in Tehran, Jerusalem and Ramallah.
Starting with Tehran: I don’t favor any Western attempt to topple the Islamic
Republic of Iran from outside, but I pray that one day the Iranian people will
do so from inside.
“This region won’t see any meaningful peace or stability so long as this
current government is in power in Tehran,” explained Karim Sadjadpour, an Iran
expert at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace. “Because Iran’s vast
resources and training are funding the 5 percent of fanatics who are making
life hell for the 95 percent of Palestinians, Lebanese, Syrians, Yemenis and
Iraqis who just want to live in peace. To paraphrase Shimon Peres about
prospects for change in Iran, the good news is there is light at the end of
that tunnel. The bad news is that today there is no tunnel.”
Given how many times Iranians have challenged their theocratic regime only to
be crushed by its iron fist, it’s clear that there is a will. We just have to
hope they find a way one day soon."
