Was Mahmoud Ahmadinejad Colluding With The US-Israel To Mount A Coup In Iran? Saurabh Shahi Explains

*IRAN COUP PLOT: WAS AHMADINEJAD COLLUDING WITH US AND ISRAEL?*

*By Saurabh Shahi*

The New York Times has published a dramatic report claiming the US and Israel tried cultivating former Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad for a “soft coup” inside Iran.

The alleged objective was to fracture Tehran’s political establishment from within.

But the deeper question remains:
▪️was Ahmadinejad truly part of a regime-change plan,
▪️or did Western intelligence walk directly into an Iranian counter-intelligence operation?

*VIDEO HIGHLIGHTS*

🔹 NYT alleges US-Israel outreach to Ahmadinejad.
🔹 Coup narrative raises major logical contradictions.
🔹 International travel claims weaken house-arrest theory.
🔹 Iranian intelligence may have staged a strategic trap.

*Can a tightly monitored former President secretly coordinate a foreign-backed coup?*

[00:00] *THE NYT REPORT THAT SHOCKED TEHRAN*

The New York Times claimed the US and Israel explored using Ahmadinejad to trigger political change inside Iran.

The report also framed the deadly attack on his residence not as an assassination attempt, but as a covert operation designed to extract him from alleged state confinement.

“अमेरिका के अखबार न्यूयॉर्क टाइम्स ने आज एक बहुत ही धमाकेदार खबर पब्लिश की है उसमें वो कह रहे हैं कि ईरान के पूर्व राष्ट्रपति महमूद अहमद निजाद उसको अमेरिका यह चाहता था कि वह ईरान के डेलसी रोदरीज बन जाए” [00:06]

Critics questioned whether the narrative relied too heavily on anonymous intelligence leaks.

[01:38] *IRAN’S MOST POPULAR MODERN PRESIDENT?*

Ahmadinejad remains one of Iran’s most controversial political figures.

Yet among working-class voters, his legacy still carries weight.

Independent academic surveys during the 2009 election period reportedly reflected strong public backing despite widespread Western allegations of electoral fraud.

His supporters point to his personal simplicity and redistribution-focused economic policies.

“पिछले 2530 सालों में बाय फार महमूद अहमद निजाद ईरान के सबसे पॉपुलर राष्ट्रपति रहे क्योंकि पर्सनल लेवल पे वो आदमी इनकरप्टेबल था” [03:07]

Large investments in schools, roads, and provincial infrastructure strengthened his grassroots appeal.

⸻

[05:12] *THE INTERNAL BREAKDOWN*

Ahmadinejad’s downfall was not driven by collapsing popularity alone.

The real rupture emerged after ideological differences with Iran’s core establishment intensified.

The biggest flashpoint came when figures close to him appeared open to discussing a two-state solution for Palestine.

That position directly challenged Tehran’s long-standing geopolitical doctrine.

“ईरान का अपना पोजीशन यह है ईरान डज़ नॉट बिलीव IN THE TWO STATE SOLUTION FOR PALESTINE” [05:47]

Soon after, Ahmadinejad faced repeated disqualifications from future elections.

⸻

[07:57] *THE COUP STORY’S BIGGEST CONTRADICTION*

The Western narrative raises serious operational questions.

Reports suggested Ahmadinejad was effectively under IRGC surveillance or restriction.

Yet the same reports acknowledged his international visits to countries like Guatemala and Hungary.

That contradiction has fueled skepticism.

“अगर वह नजरबंद थे तो फिर गोटेमाला कैसे जा रहे थे हंगरी कैसे जा रहे थे यानी इसमें कोई लॉजिक है क्या” [08:40]

A former President traveling internationally under state protection would almost certainly remain under constant monitoring.

⸻

[10:00] *A COUNTER-INTELLIGENCE OPERATION?*

Iranian intelligence may have deliberately allowed selective foreign engagement to expose Western intentions and identify possible regime-change channels.

If true, the operation would represent a classic counter-espionage playbook.

“या तो यह बहुत ही सोफेस्टिकेटेड काउंटर इंटेलिजेंस प्रोग्राम बनाया ईरान ने जिसमें ईरान ने उनको इशारा किया” [10:03]

The operation may not reveal Iranian weakness, but Iranian strategic confidence.
