YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Iran’s regime is “a theocratic autocracy” waging war by proxy—from Hamas and Hezbollah to militias and the Houthis—while crushing dissent at home. In this in-depth of The Brief, Jonathan Schanzer (FDD) explains Iran’s power structure, the protest waves since 2009, what recent nuclear site strikes actually set back, the state of the economy/sanctions, and how proxy networks amplify Tehran’s reach.

We also cover Khamenei’s system vs. elections, internet blackouts, terror finance, and what a post-regime Middle East might look like.
