Mossad, Ahmadinejad, and the plan to topple Iran’s regime - with Ronen Bergman
Episode 508
Wednesday, 20 May, 2026
Subscribe to Inside Call me Back. ____ Subscribe to Ark News Daily ____ Did the U.S. and Israel plan to replace Iran’s regime with Mahmoud Ahmadinejad?! A new New York Times investigation has revealed an astonishing alleged U.S.-Israeli plan behind the war with Iran: not just strikes on nuclear sites and missile capabilities, but a broader attempt at regime change, together with none other than Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. Ronen Bergman joins Dan to explain how the plan was built, why Ahmadinejad became part of it, why it collapsed before it could fully begin, and what it means that the story is coming out while the war is still unresolved. In this episode: - Ronen’s first reaction to the Ahmadinejad story - How Israel’s goal shifted from strikes to regime change - Why the 12-day war left the core Iran problem unresolved - What the Mossad plan was supposed to do in the first 100 hours - Why Ahmadinejad was considered as an internal alternative - The strike that was meant to free Ahmadinejad - The plan for Kurdish forces to enter Iran, and why it never moved forward - Who benefits from this story going public This episode was sponsored by RootOne.
