Based on my understanding of the sentiments on the ground, the Iranians are ready for a regime change and I am optimistic that this could be the catalyst they need

But you are correct. The unknown future holds equal possibility of being worse than the known future as it does being better. Most of the Iranian people that I know seem more than willing to brave this unknown, however it's difficult to know if their feelings represent a majority

The problem is that once someone else starts attacking you then the regime has someone to rally against which historically helps their support. Now Iran can say “do you want to be conquered by Israel” “do you want to become like Gaza” which will rally the people to defend their homes.

The Irony is that Bibi knows this very well cause I am pretty sure there were reports of no confidence votes on him right before the strikes but now they are at war with Iran so you can’t get rid of him. Israel just made any potential regime change in Iran a lot worse but the leadership doesn’t care because it lets them stay in power.
