Did you not see how long it took in Syria? Did you miss ISIS? the massive number of groups splintered off? Sure people hated Assad but what it took to get rid of him was horrid. If any thing the Iranians are probably scared that this is what will become of them I know I would be.

This is perhaps the endgame for Israel: a fractured, warlording Iran that will never become a cohesive threat again.
They did it in Libya
Libya is and always was a small tribal state that Gadhafi held together by using the revenue from oil to devise a system of alliance that gave a semblance of stability. It never had strong foundations to begin with. Libya and the states in the Arabian peninsula will always be played over because they're stuck in Bedu culture.
