Arabic version: تسليط الضوء على عمليات الموساد ودعم الولايات المتحدة وضعف الأمن الإيراني

Recent high-profile assassinations in Iran, including that of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, have prompted military analysts to reassess the narrative surrounding Israel’s Mossad. While Israeli military sources tout these strikes as intelligence triumphs, the reality suggests a more complex interplay of U.S. support and internal Iranian security decay.

According to Al Jazeera, the successful strike against Khamenei was not solely an Israeli operation but a joint mission that relied heavily on U.S. technology and intelligence. The CIA provided crucial real-time surveillance and target information, with American drones and missiles playing a key role in the attacks.

Experts note that the operations expose significant weaknesses within Iran’s security apparatus rather than showcasing Mossad’s tactical genius. For example, the assassination of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran involved local collaborators and a long-term infiltration strategy rather than advanced technology.

Furthermore, Israeli intelligence has been accused of exploiting sociopolitical fractures within Iran and Lebanon, often using foreign proxies to conduct operations without raising suspicion. This reliance on internal opposition and covert tactics underscores the challenges faced by Iranian security forces.

Despite recent tactical successes, analysts warn that these operations may not lead to long-term security for Israel. The ongoing conflict and resurgence of threats from groups like Hezbollah indicate that tactical victories may ultimately be strategic failures, as the region remains volatile and unstable.
