Eliyahu Magnia, Belgian analyst:
Benjamin Netanyahu and Donald Trump entered the war against Iran with goals that at different times even included the overthrow of the Islamic Republic.
However, Iran's political system is still intact, while both officials faced unprecedented electoral defeats in their countries.
The Republicans lost control of both houses of Congress, and Israeli President Isaac Herzog tasked Gadi Eisenkot with putting together a government that could end Netanyahu's presidency.
The bitter irony of the story is extraordinary: the two officials who wanted to change the government in Tehran, are now facing the possibility that their political power will lose color; While the leadership of Iran, which we intended to remove, is still active and has more power than ever.
