?Is this for internal or external consumption?

EXTERNAL.

2. That a response would be increasingly "unconventional" in nature, as the conventional Iranian Army is pushed aside from it.

It is doubtful the US, Israel or any other country would view the message as conveying something very different than what they would already expect.
