Udd Elam, former head of Mossad's Special Operations Division, stated that Mossad's public call for information on the IRGC and Basij groups is part of a strategy to convert the Iranian people's anger into operational intelligence against the Islamic Republic. Elam noted that this approach leverages the lack of legitimacy the Iranian regime faces among its people and could lead to internal erosion, economic crisis, and military pressure, potentially resulting in a popular uprising or disintegration within the regime.
