No ground troops to enter Iran?!
Like, DERRRR

Don't need to. Drones are more effective.
Ukraine uses drones, droids and now AI. Totally dehumanised.

It depends on what the Iranian people want to achieve

What have they wanted to achieve since 1979?

Once the fanatical islamists have been taken out it is up to the Iranian people to put their own house in order with weapons and logistic support from the west.

The majority of the population are Persians.

Okay, a few Alawites, Bolochs, Kurds, Druze. But the majority aren't hard to work out.

Iranians aren't tribal like the Arabs. They identify largely as Persians, not members of an extended family, clan or sect. There are no rival gangs storing weapons, like in Syria and Gaza. There are no rival families jousting for power. There are no sectarian militias, like in Libya, spilling into neighboring countries and causing problems there.

Hezbollah, Iran's foreign militia, is an extension of the Islamic Republic of Iran. It can't outlive the regime itself. It has never jostled for power within Iran or contested the mullahs, Iran's Supreme Leadership Authority.

The "fanatics" you describe are an Arabic phenomenon that predate Islam. Mohammed's chief ambition was to unite the Arabic tribes under a single faith. It's debatable whether he ever achieved this ambition.

Iranians were already united under the system of their former Persian empire. They've suffered overly-controlling emperors and despots for millennia. Whenever they haven't had strong leaders, they've been under constant threats of colonisation, invasion or foreign occupation, longest under the Mongals. They had a brief period of modernisation under the shahs, prior to the mullahs, but have been a largely urban, outward-looking trading society for much of their history. Their position on the Silk Road was a key factor in this.

Iran has a few central Asian tribal influences on its eastern periphery. All power, however, is centred in Tehran. No matter what your DL does - or perhaps more importantly, the Israelis - this won't change. If you're seeking regime change, you need a few fanatics.

It's becoming clear now that your DL had no plan for regime change in the first place. All orders are coming from Jerusalem. Regime change is Bibi's baby. Obviously, he hasn't given much thought to who he wants the mullahs replaced with.

You?
