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.
