Iran has no organized opposition afaik (other than the remnants of the royal Pahlavi family in DC).

I presume they’ll fall into civil war which the Saudis will watch with great joy. Im sure Netanyahu will wash his hands of the post-war mess he creates - probably believes the US, China or the EU will clean it up since there’s no power at the UN anymore to do anything
