US-Israeli task force established to stoke internal pressure in Iran – report
Israel and the US have established a joint task force geared toward exploiting and amplifying internal pressure on the Iranian regime, Channel 10 news reports.
The report says a recent meeting in Washington between Israel’s National Security Adviser Meir Ben-Shabbat and his American counterpart, John Bolton, focused on strategy for turning up the heat on the government in Tehran.
The Islamic Republic has seen multiple mass protests and the reported deaths of several demonstrators in the past week, due to a water crisis and worsening economic conditions triggered by the US pullout from the nuclear deal.
The report quotes a senior Israeli official as saying that the goal of the task force isn’t to topple the regime. (“No one thinks” that can be done, he is quoted as saying.)
Rather, he says, its aim is to exploit internal pressure in Iran in order to force the ayatollahs to “change their behavior.”

Israel wants an end to support of Palestinian factions and is not concerned with the rest of Iranian policies. Israeli lobby in US is influential and will use Trump to their advantage to instill some policies in the Middle East. Like this one or the more important embassy move in Jerusalem. If he gets impeached or if he loses next term, they're hoping some of these policies will be continued under new leadership/administration.
If this effort succeeds, Iran is going to try to find ways to affect Saudi oil supply(they can't counter any way else). This effort is going to cause more destabilization of the region and you wonder what the end game is here....
