Even 'large-scale' US war unlikely to topple Iran government, says intel report

Even 'large-scale' US war unlikely to topple Iran government, says intel report A US National Intelligence Council assessment found that even a "large-scale" American-led war against Iran would be unlikely to topple the country’s government, according to a report by The Washington Post. The report, completed about a week after the US and Israel launched joint strikes on 28 February, said Iran’s fragmented opposition is unlikely to take control of the country. The findings also question the Trump administration’s suggestion that the war could be concluded within four to six weeks.
