Why Iran's Ideology Drives Conflict with Israel – Sky News AU Interview

Miri analyzes Iran’s motivations behind its recent actions against Israel, emphasizing that these moves are driven by a deep-rooted ideological commitment to Israel's destruction, symbolized by Tehran’s “countdown clock.” She highlights Israel’s successful strikes on Iranian targets, including the destruction of missile stockpiles and anti-missile batteries, and underscores Israel’s refusal to return to tolerating proxy attacks from groups like Hezbollah. Miri expresses disappointment—rather than anger—in the Iranian regime, stressing that while Israel enjoys air superiority, this does not guarantee a change in Iranian behavior. She reiterates Israel’s resolve to enforce new rules of engagement following years of conflict. When questioned about the potential for US involvement under Donald Trump, Miri speculates that recent US reactions differentiate between direct attacks on American assets and attacks on Israel, concluding that Israel will continue to assert its own responses rather than rely on outside intervention.
