A top advisor to Donald Trump, billionaire venture capitalist David Sacks, warned that, if the war on Iran continues, "Israel could just be destroyed", or it could even use a nuclear weapon. Ben Norton explains how Washington sabotaged multiple peace deals and negotiations with Tehran, putting the world on the path toward catastrophe.

Convidado: Demétrio Magnoli, comentarista da GloboNews e colunista dos jornais O Globo e Folha de S.Paulo. Ali Larijani, o líder efetivo do regime iraniano desde o início da guerra, foi alvo de um bombardeio aéreo israelense na madrugada desta terça-feira (17). Além dele, morreu também Gholamreza Soleimani, chefe da Basij, uma milícia paramilitar e voluntária da Guarda Revolucionária do Irã. A morte de Larijani é a maior baixa do regime dos aiatolás desde o primeiro dia de ataques israelenses e americanos ao Irã, quando o líder supremo do país, Ali Khamenei, foi assassinado. Larijani era o chefe do Conselho de Segurança, o cérebro por trás das estratégias de defesa e da política nuclear do país e o mais influente canal diplomático do governo com o Ocidente. Para explicar quem era Larijani e as consequências da morte dele para o regime e para o futuro da guerra, Natuza Nery conversa com Demétrio Magnoli, comentarista da GloboNews e colunista dos jornais O Globo e Folha de S.Paulo. Demétrio também avalia o risco de uma incursão terrestre no Irã e analisa os objetivos militares de Israel e dos Estados Unidos – onde o diretor do Centro Nacional de Contraterrorismo se demitiu nesta terça.
Israel claims it has killed the influential Iranian national security chief Ali Larijani in overnight strikes. If confirmed, Larijani's death would represent a devastating blow to the regime, and the most senior official to die since Ali Khamenei's death.

On February 28, 2026, Ali Khamenei was assassinated. He was killed in a joint American and Israeli airstrike, in a bunker so deep the elevator took five minutes to reach it, at a meeting with senior advisers whose location intelligence services had tracked for months. The infrastructure that made this targeted assassination possible—the human networks engaged in the patient penetration of one of the most hostile intelligence environments on earth—had been built over more than two decades. Today, Yonah Jeremy Bob joins Mosaic's editor Jonathan Silver to delve into how the Mossad build that infrastructure. Bob is the senior military and intelligence analyst for the Jerusalem Post and has deep access to the Israeli intelligence community. His book Target Tehran, co-authored with Ilan Evyatar and published by Simon & Schuster in 2023, was named a top book of the year by the Wall Street Journal. When Prime Minister Netanyahu was photographed in his war room during Operation Midnight Hammer in June 2025, a copy of Target Tehran was visible on the table in front of him. Bob also has a forthcoming book with the Wall Street Journal's Elliot Kaufman, titled In the War Room: The Inside Story of Israel's Fight Against Hamas and the Iranian Axis. Before the airstrikes, there was a decades-long effort to recruit agents inside the nuclear program, to infiltrate Iran's supply chains, and to track and, when necessary, to assassinate the Iranian officials and weapons producers who posed the greatest threat to Israel and America. This episode examines three operations in depth—the 2018 theft of Iran's nuclear archive, the assassination of the weapons-program chief Mohsen Fakhrizadeh, and the infiltration of the supply chain for the Natanz nuclear complex—and asks what Israeli human intelligence is contributing to Operations Roaring Lion and Epic Fury.

In this week's conversation between Dr. James Emery White and co-host Alexis Drye, they discuss the war with Iran, which the U.S. entered into on February 28. The attacks resulted in the assassination of Israel's supreme leader, Ali Khamenei, and several other officials. And in response, Iran has launched missiles at various targets in Israel and US military bases. Today's conversation hopefully sheds some light on the history of the tension in the Middle East, as well as whether war can ever be just. Episode Links At the top of the podcast, Dr. White suggested a helpful resource for understanding more of the world's political order. Written by Richard Haass, you can find The World: A Brief Introduction at The Grounds Bookstore HERE. He also mentioned a past podcast episode that we highly suggest you go back and listen to for more of an understanding of Israel and their engagement with both Palestine and Iran: CCP80: On the War in Israel. This episode will help you understand why Jerusalem is such a flashpoint. There is another past episode that we'd recommend for understanding the differences between Christianity and Islam: CCP86: On Islam. Alexis mentioned the article written by Russell Moore in Christianity Today titled “What the Iran War Could Do to Your Soul,” which you can find HERE. It really challenges people to think about the why behind their support or opposition to the war. And when it comes to whether the church should engage this current conflict, it would be helpful to go back to our recent episode: CCP185: On Bad Bunny, Monks and Immigration.

It's been a week that's seen a new Ayatollah proclaimed in Iran. Mojtaba Khamenei, son of the assassinated supreme leader Ali Khamenei, has not been seen in public and is believed to be in hiding after reportedly being injured in the same strike that killed his father. State television showed crowds chanting “Long Live Khamenei”, while at night in Tehran some residents risked arrest to shout from their windows: “Death to Mojtaba”. A statement attributed to the new leader vowed continued attacks on US and Israeli interests, the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, and what it called “never-ending revenge”.
U.S. intelligence reports this week show that, despite U.S and Israeli strikes, very little has changed about the Iranian regime's grip since the start of the war.The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, or the IRGC for short, along with interim leaders that stepped in after Supreme leader Ali Khamenei's death, still retain control of the country.The IRGC has been described as a parallel state, and the most powerful institution in Iran outside of the Supreme Leader's office. They have broad control over Iran's industry and major sectors of the country's economy, and have been designated a terror group by Canada and the U.S.Ali Vaez is the International Crisis Group's Iran Project Director. He joins us to discuss the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps – an organization that has a central place in Iran's public, private and political life, and a key role in the escalating war in the Middle East.For transcripts of Front Burner, please visit: https://www.cbc.ca/radio/frontburner/transcripts
Ugens Radio Information handler om den nye ayatollah i Iran, om stjernekokken René Redzepis fald og om blå blok, der både leder efter et fælles projekt og en samlende figur. --- Mojtaba Khamenei har erstattet Ali Khamenei som Irans nye leder. Sønnen har arvet magten fra faderen som i et kongedømme. Det vidner om et desperat regime, der har forrådt sine egne principper og tror på krig mod alle som dets sidste chance. Rune Lykkeberg udlægger magtsituationen i det vaklende iranske præstestyre og gør status på en planløs krig, der truer med at sprede sig kaotisk til hele Mellemøsten. Han var Nomas mangeårige chef og et af de største navne inden for gastronomiens verden. Men nu har René Redzepi trukket sig som chef for Noma efter at flere tidligere ansatte har fortalt om dårlige arbejdsforhold, vold og ydmygelser på stjernerestauranten. Jeg taler med Rasmus Elmelund og Lærke Cramon om det, der måske kan blive kokkefagets MeToo-øjeblik. Og så skal vi også høre fra vores ugentlige valgpanel, som gør status på valgkampen for de blå partier, der – efter en noget klodset start – nu mærker en snert af momentum. Men hvad er egentlig det fælles blå projekt, og kan man overhovedet blive enige om, hvem der skal lede det? Det diskuterer Jette Aagaard, Laura Friis Wang og Villads Andersen sammen med Natalie Barrington Rosendal.
Confira os destaques do Jornal da Manhã desta sexta-feira (13): O presidente Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva anunciou um pacote de medidas para conter o impacto da guerra no Irã sobre o preço do diesel e a inflação. Entre as ações estão um decreto que zera as alíquotas de PIS/Cofins sobre o combustível, o que pode reduzir o valor em R$ 0,32 por litro, e uma medida provisória que prevê subvenção no mesmo valor a produtores e importadores. O governo também determinou a tributação da exportação de petróleo para ampliar o refino interno e exigiu que postos de combustíveis informem de forma clara aos consumidores a redução de impostos e preços. Os Estados Unidos emitiram uma licença temporária de 30 dias que permite a países comprarem petróleo russo e derivados que atualmente estão retidos no mar. Segundo o secretário do Tesouro, Scott Bessent, a medida busca ajudar a estabilizar os mercados globais de energia diante da volatilidade causada pela guerra contra o Irã. O anúncio ocorreu poucas horas depois de o preço do petróleo ultrapassar a marca de US$ 100 por barril, atingindo o maior nível em quase quatro anos. O Brasil registrou 140 casos confirmados de Mpox desde o início de 2026, segundo dados atualizados pelo Ministério da Saúde. Até o momento, não houve registro de mortes pela doença no período. Além dos casos confirmados, o país contabiliza 539 casos suspeitos e 9 considerados prováveis, mantendo o monitoramento da situação pelas autoridades de saúde. O novo líder supremo do Irã, Mojtaba Khamenei, afirmou que o país deve continuar utilizando o bloqueio do Estreito de Ormuz como instrumento de pressão geopolítica. A declaração foi divulgada por meio de uma mensagem lida na TV estatal iraniana, poucos dias após ele assumir o posto ocupado por seu pai, Ali Khamenei. No comunicado, o novo líder também aconselhou países vizinhos a fecharem bases militares dos Estados Unidos na região, afirmando que essas instalações continuarão sendo alvo de ataques iranianos. O Estreito de Ormuz é uma das rotas marítimas mais estratégicas do mundo para o transporte de petróleo, o que aumenta a tensão internacional diante das novas ameaças. A chefe da diplomacia da União Europeia, Kaja Kallas, criticou o governo do presidente Donald Trump e afirmou que o líder americano tenta “dividir a Europa” com estratégias semelhantes às usadas por adversários do bloco. Em entrevista ao Financial Times, Kallas citou tarifas comerciais, ameaças econômicas e até discussões sobre a anexação da Groenlândia como exemplos de pressão sobre países europeus. O ex-presidente Jair Bolsonaro foi levado ao hospital na manhã de sexta-feira (13) após apresentar mal-estar enquanto estava detido no 19º Batalhão da Polícia Militar do Distrito Federal, conhecido como “Papudinha”, em Brasília. Segundo o senador Flávio Bolsonaro, o ex-presidente acordou com calafrios e episódios de vômito. O Corpo de Bombeiros do Distrito Federal foi acionado por volta das 7h40 para prestar atendimento. O Ministério Público do Paraná sofreu uma nova derrota no desdobramento judicial do Caso Evandro após recorrer ao Supremo Tribunal Federal contra uma decisão do Superior Tribunal de Justiça. O ministro Gilmar Mendes manteve a revisão criminal que anulou os processos relacionados ao desaparecimento e morte do menino Evandro Ramos Caetano. Com isso, seguem absolvidos Osvaldo Marcineiro, Davi dos Santos Soares e Beatriz Abagge, que haviam sido condenados pelo crime ocorrido nos anos 1990 e que se tornou um dos casos criminais mais controversos da história recente do Brasil.

On March 2nd, in the early stages of the ongoing attack on Iran by Israel and the United States, and following the assassination of Iran's supreme leader Ali Khamenei, the Lebanese resistance group Hezbollah launched missile strikes on northern Israel. Hezbollah described the attack as a defensive act after more than a year of near-daily Israeli strikes. Israel has since launched major attacks on Lebanese territory that have killed hundreds, and its evacuation orders have caused a massive displacement of Lebanese civilians. Nathaniel George returns to PTO to talk about the background to the latest round of conflict between Israel and Hezbollah, the current situation in the country, and about the history of Israeli violations of Lebanese sovereignty.

De signalen uit het Witte Huis zijn allesbehalve eenduidig wat betreft de oorlog in Iran. In de ene verklaring lijkt Trump te suggereren dat het conflict snel voorbij kan zijn, terwijl hij even later waarschuwt dat de gevechten nog weken kunnen aanhouden. Ondertussen lopen de spanningen in de regio verder op. Amerikaanse militairen zijn omgekomen bij Iraanse tegenaanvallen en de olieprijzen reageren nerveus op de escalatie. Tegelijkertijd wordt de binnenlandse politieke druk groter: de Amerikaanse kiezer is zelden enthousiast over oorlogsslachtoffers of stijgende benzineprijzen. De blokkade van de Straat van Hormuz snijdt een vijfde van de mondiale oliehandel af en duwt de wereldeconomie richting recessierisico. De Verenigde Staten voelen ondanks hun eigen productie de pijn aan de pomp, Europese dieselprijzen breken records en bondgenoten sturen schepen richting de Golf. In Iran ontstaat nieuw leiderschap na uitschakeling van Ali Khamenei, maar de militaire infrastructuur en raketcapaciteit blijven grotendeels intact. Intussen wordt een dodelijke Tomahawk-inslag op een meisjesschool weggewuifd met ongeloofwaardige verklaringen en blijkt Oekraïense dronetechnologie een gemiste kans voor Washington.

A new violent escalation in Lebanon – but in reality, the war that began in 2023 never truly stopped. According to the United Nations, the ceasefire signed in November 2024 between Hezbollah and Israel has been violated more than 14,000 times by Israel. Then, in late February, Iran's supreme leader, Ali Khamenei, was assassinated in US-Israeli bombings. In response, Hezbollah – Lebanon's pro-Iran militia – retaliated from southern Lebanon, raising the risk of plunging the entire country into yet another full-scale war. Since then, Israeli evacuation orders have forced nearly a quarter of Lebanon's population to flee their homes.

Le chef du Conseil suprême iranien de sécurité nationale, Ali Larijani, a mis en garde ce mardi le président américain Donald Trump, l'appelant à faire «attention à ne pas être éliminé», et rejetant ses «menaces vides», au onzième jour de la guerre. Le régime des mollahs est loin de capituler, alors que Mojtaba Khamenei a été choisi pour succéder à son père Ali Khamenei. Mais jusqu'à quand ?

We discuss with Hrant Mikaelian the expanding war on Iran and what it could mean for the region. We took a close look at the latest IRI poll and its disputed methodology and findings, and the emerging shape of Armenia's parliamentary race. Hrant Mikaelian argued that Iran's leadership transition signals greater resolve rather than collapse, that Azerbaijan is still constrained from direct action against Iran unless the Iranian state seriously weakens, and that the IRI poll raises major methodological and interpretive questions. The discussion then turned to the opposition field in Armenia, where newer forces may have room to grow, but where media imbalance and weak opposition reach remain major structural obstacles.TopicsIran War UpdateIRI Poll ReviewPolitical LandscapeGuestHrant MikaelianHostsHovik ManucharyanAsbed BedrossianEpisode 521 | Recorded: March 8, 2026https://podcasts.groong.org/521Subscribe and follow us everywhere you are: linktr.ee/groong

Yonit describe what it means to live under constant missile alerts: sleepless nights, families moving between shelters, and a country running on collective exhaustion. They also unpack two major developments shaping the conflict. First, the mixed and sometimes contradictory signals coming from Donald Trump about how long the war will last. And second, the sudden leadership change in Iran, with Mojtaba Khamenei emerging as the successor to his father. To make sense of it all, they speak with Professor Ali Ansari of the University of St Andrews, one of the world's leading historians of Iran. Ansari challenges much of the conventional analysis around the war and the future of the Iranian regime. Could the Islamic Republic actually be weaker than many assume? Is regime change truly impossible—or simply unpredictable? And if change does come, what might it look like? Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Michael Allen discusses Iran's new Supreme Leader with Jeffrey Feltman, a visiting fellow at the Brookings Institution and former UN Under-Secretary-General. Feltman examines the sudden rise of Mojtaba Khamenei following the death of his father, Ali Khamenei, and discusses the regime's internal cohesion despite widespread domestic opposition. He also explains Israeli military targeting strategies, the risk of a "race for the bomb," and the potential for significant regional escalation.
The left-wing propaganda media provides a non-stop flow of bias or misleading reporting for the Media Research Center and Newsbusters to call out daily. From Iran's foreign minister making unchecked claims on ABC to CNN failing to report over 220 missiles fired from Hezbollah in the last five days, legacy media is just simply untrustworthy. Tim Graham and David Bozell unpack some of the most egregious reporting as of recent, including the New York Time fawning over Iran's former ayatollah Ali Khamenei. As for the most important issue in our nation, the legacy outlets have had zero coverage of the Save America Act, an issue that has almost 80% favorability among Americans.

Convidado: Daniel Sousa, comentarista da GloboNews, professor do Ibmec e criador do podcast Petit Journal. A escolha de Mojtaba Khamenei como líder supremo do Irã sinaliza a continuidade da linha dura do regime em meio à guerra e frustra as expectativas dos Estados Unidos de uma mudança política em Teerã. Filho do aiatolá Ali Khamenei, morto no primeiro dia dos ataques americanos e israelenses, Mojtaba foi escolhido pela Assembleia dos Especialistas, o conselho de 88 clérigos responsável por definir a autoridade máxima do país e é conhecido pela proximidade com a Guarda Revolucionária. Antes mesmo do anúncio, Donald Trump havia dito que seria inaceitável que Mojtaba fosse eleito como novo líder supremo – e, depois, afirmou que não estava feliz com a escolha. Agora, a expectativa de que possa haver diálogo entre as partes para uma resolução rápida da guerra praticamente acabou. Diante das incertezas, o preço do barril de petróleo disparou 25% da noite para o dia e o mundo inteiro entrou em estado de alerta com o risco de pressão inflacionária generalizada. Depois do susto, o valor voltou a cair, principalmente depois que o presidente americano disse em uma entrevista que a guerra está “praticamente concluída” e pode acabar em breve. Neste episódio, Natuza Nery conversa com Daniel Sousa, comentarista da GloboNews, professor do IBMEC e criador do podcast Petit Journal, para explicar o perfil de Mojtaba Khamenei e a reação do mercado ao nome dele. Daniel comenta as perspectivas militares e diplomáticas do Irã e analisa o risco de o preço do petróleo romper sua máxima histórica – e de que modo isso bate no bolso do consumidor brasileiro.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Diplomatic correspondent Lazar Berman joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. Overnight, the Israeli military says, it pushed deeper into southern Lebanon as part of its “enhanced forward defense posture” after Hezbollah began attacking Israel a week ago. While there are Israeli boots on the ground, Berman clarifies that the IDF is not -- yet -- taking part in a ground maneuver. We turn to Iran and the question of a potential schism between the US and Israel over Israel's targeting of Iranian oil sites. How long can the US continue the conflict in light of the ripple effects on the global economy? The Times of Israel's US bureau chief Jacob Magid conducted a telephone interview with US President Donald Trump yesterday. We hear the main headlines today, and Magid will fill us in on the rest of the conversation on the podcast tomorrow. And finally, we speak about the choice of Mojtaba Khamenei to succeed his father, Ali Khamenei, as supreme leader. Berman discusses who he is and how the move is a direct rebuke to US President Donald Trump, who had declared the son “unacceptable.” We also delve into the apparent differences of opinion among the leadership as Iran’s President Masoud Pezeshkian apologized Saturday for attacks on regional countries, even as its missiles and drones flew toward Gulf Arab states Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

This morning, we're breaking down the latest developments in the war with Iran, and the situation is becoming more alarming by the day. According to Karoline Leavitt, Trump is not ruling out the possibility of a draft, raising serious questions about how far this conflict could escalate. Meanwhile, talk of regime change appears to have gone nowhere, with the son of Ali Khamenei expected to take power, signaling an even more hardline future for the country. Back home, the fallout is already hitting Americans' wallets. Gas prices are climbing, markets are sliding, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average is taking a hit as the economic consequences of the conflict ripple across the globe. So where does this go from here? How long could this war last, and how much more strain can the economy take? Today, we're joined by journalist John Heilemann to break it all down.

Convidados: Gunther Rudzit, especialista em defesa e segurança nacional, professor da ESPM e professor convidado da Universidade da Força Aérea (Unifa); e Cristian Wittmann, professor da Unipampa e integrante do conselho do ICAN (Campanha Internacional pela Abolição das Armas Nucleares). No fim da primeira semana de conflito, Estados Unidos e Israel anunciaram que a guerra havia entrado em uma nova fase. E prometeram “aumento drástico” no poder de fogo dos ataques contra o regime iraniano. O Irã afirmou que aguarda os inimigos para responder com “golpes dolorosos” e revelou que poderá usar armas nunca vistas em combate até agora. Até aqui, os dois lados têm estratégias muito diferentes. Americanos e israelenses fizeram uso sofisticado sistema de tecnologia para acompanhar a localização do aiatolá Ali Khamenei e outras autoridades do regime. Na manhã do dia 28 de fevereiro, decidiram por um ataque de precisão para executá-lo e dar início à guerra. Desde então, os mísseis disparados pelos dois países atingiram ao menos 2 mil alvos no território iraniano. O Irã já disparou milhares de drones e centenas de mísseis contra Israel e contra países que têm bases militares americanas – alguns desses armamentos alcançam mais de 6 mil km/h e podem carregar ogivas superiores a 1 tonelada. O regime garante que seus equipamentos mais sofisticados não foram colocados em jogo ainda. Neste episódio, Natuza Nery conversa com o especialista em defesa e segurança nacional Gunther Rudzit para entender o tamanho do arsenal de cada lado do confronto. Professor de Relações Internacionais da ESPM e professor convidado da Universidade da Força Aérea (UNIFA), Gunther também avalia o futuro do conflito. Participa também do episódio Cristian Wittmann, professor de direito da Unipampa e integrante do conselho do ICAN (Campanha Internacional pela Abolição das Armas Nucleares). Ele analisa como a inteligência artificial está sendo usada na guerra e debate as questões éticas relacionadas a isso.
The U.S. military has identified the seventh soldier killed during Operation Epic Fury as Sgt. Benjamin Pennington of Kentucky. Meanwhile, the Iranian regime continues launching strikes against other countries in the Middle East. The U.S. Central Command says over 5,000 Iranian targets have been struck in the first 10 days of Operation Epic Fury, with 50 Iranian vessels destroyed.President Donald Trump today delivered remarks to the House Republican Conference in Florida, calling the U.S. military campaign against Iran a “short-term excursion.” He said Operation Epic Fury aims to eliminate evil and will end “pretty quickly.” Trump also dismissed Iran's newly named supreme leader—Ali Khamenei's son—as an unacceptable choice.With a partial government shutdown now in effect for nearly a month, passengers at some airports are experiencing delays due to TSA staffing shortages. Meanwhile, New York City officials are investigating an attack involving explosive devices outside the mayor's residence on Saturday as an act of terrorism.

Terror threats across the country are on the rise amid the new conflict with Iran. An IED nearly detonated in NYC at a protest over Operation Epic Fury. The Kansas City Airport was evacuated, investigated and later cleared over a terror threat. A Southwest Airlines flight was diverted over a bomb threat. DHS is still not funded, which is worth noting. Ali Khamenei's son has officially been named the new Supreme Leader of Iran. Trump says he will not sign any bills until the Save America Act is passed. An illegal alien has been charged with voting in FIVE Presidential Elections in Pennsylvania.

Les journalistes et experts de RFI répondent également à vos questions sur l'échange de prisonniers ukrainiens et russes, la fin des visas étudiants pour certains pays au Royaume-Uni et la nomination d'un nouveau Guide suprême en Iran. RDC : quels défis attendent James Swan, le nouveau chef de la Monusco ? L'ONU a nommé l'Américain James Swan à la tête de la mission de maintien de la paix en RDC. Il succède à la Guinéenne Bintou Keita dans un contexte sécuritaire très tendu dans l'est du pays, marqué par la reprise des combats avec l'AFC/M23. Pourquoi avoir choisi un Américain pour diriger la Monusco ? Cette décision a-t-elle été influencée par Washington ? Au regard de son expérience et de son parcours de diplomate, James Swan peut-il vraiment faire respecter le cessez-le-feu dans l'est du pays et relancer l'action de la Monusco ? Avec Patient Ligodi, journaliste au service Afrique de RFI. Ukraine-Russie : comment expliquer la vague de libération des prisonniers de guerre ? Au total, 1 000 prisonniers ont été libérés. L'Ukraine et la Russie ont échangé, chacune, 500 prisonniers de guerre grâce à la médiation des États-Unis et des Émirats Arabes Unis. Cet accord constitue l'un des rares gestes concrets entre Moscou et Kiev. Pourquoi cet accord intervient-il maintenant ? Que sait-on du profil des prisonniers libérés ? Comment les États-Unis et les Émirats Arabes Unis ont-ils permis ces échanges ? Avec Kseniya Zhornokley, journaliste spécialisée pour la rédaction ukrainienne de RFI. Royaume-Uni : pourquoi Londres ferme ses portes aux étudiants de certains pays ? La décision a été annoncée par la ministre de l'Intérieur Shabana Mahmood. À partir du 26 mars, les ressortissants afghans, camerounais, birmans et soudanais ne pourront plus obtenir de visa étudiant pour étudier en Grande-Bretagne. Le gouvernement travailliste de Keir Starmer durcit donc encore un peu plus sa politique migratoire. Pourquoi cette mesure est-elle adoptée maintenant ? Pourquoi les étudiants de ces quatre pays sont-ils visés en particulier ? Avec Sidonie Gaucher, correspondante à Londres de RFI. Iran : le fils succède à son père, comment expliquer ce choix ? Son nom circulait de longue date pour prendre le relais d'Ali Khamenei, mort sous les bombes américano-israéliennes au premier jour de la guerre. Mojtaba Khamenei a été choisi dimanche par l'Assemblée des experts, collège de 88 membres appartenant au clergé chiite, pour succéder à son père comme guide suprême. Comment expliquer ce choix ? Le fils bénéfice-t-il du soutien de tout le régime iranien ? Avec Clément Therme, chercheur, professeur à l'Université Paul-Valery de Montpellier. Auteur de l'ouvrage « Téhéran/Washington, 1979 – 2025 : Le grand satan à l'épreuve de la révolution islamique » (éditions Hémisphères).

ESQUEÇA AS PLANILHAS COM O MYPROFIT - CUPOM: PERINI10 https://r.vocemaisrico.com/89b2ac9805Em 28 de fevereiro de 2026, EUA e Israel lançaram a maior ofensiva militar no Oriente Médio desde o Iraque. O líder supremo, Ali Khamenei, foi assassinado. Instalações nucleares foram bombardeadas. E o Estreito de Ormuz — por onde escoa cerca de 20% do petróleo mundial — entrou no centro da crise, com ameaça de interrupção do tráfego e risco real de um choque de energia.Diante de um conflito que pode se estender por dias, semanas e até meses, o mundo observa atento às implicações econômicas.Mas qual é o plano real por trás dessa guerra?Qual foi, de fato, o papel dos EUA na ofensiva? Como Trump pretende conduzir o primeiro grande conflito armado do seu atual mandato — e qual é a estratégia para vencer sem transformar isso em uma guerra longa?O objetivo é só “dissuadir” o Irã — ou desmontar de vez seu programa nuclear e a estrutura de poder regional? O que muda quando você elimina o principal líder do regime no meio de uma ofensiva? Quem ocupa o vácuo de poder — e como isso altera o cálculo do IRGC, de Israel e dos aliados americanos?Para responder estas e outras perguntas, convidamos o Professor HOC para o episódio 287 do podcast Os Sócios.Falaremos sobre o contexto do ataque dos EUA ao Irã, quais podem ser os desdobramentos disso para o mundo, conflitos no Oriente Médio, potências envolvidas, posicionamento da China e da Rússia, e muito mais.Ele será transmitido nesta sexta-feira (06/03), às 11h, no canal Os Sócios Podcast.Hosts: Bruno Perini @bruno_perini e Malu Perini @maluperiniConvidado: Heni Ozi Cukier (Professor HOC) @professorhoc
Eyewitnesses from a city in Iran describe how armed forces loyal to the Islamic regime killed countless protesters in a lethal crackdown on demonstrations earlier this year. Seen through the eyes of people who were in Isfahan, this programme pieces together a snapshot of events from the 8th and 9th of January. That's when huge numbers of people took to the streets to protest decades of oppression and call for an end to the Islamic Republic. Thousands of people across the country were killed by Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei's armed forces. The regime blamed the bloodshed on what it called rioters and street terrorists backed by the countries enemies. The UN has called for an independent investigation. However, any prospect of clarity about what happened is at risk of being overshadowed by the current conflict engulfing the country. The first waves of US and Israeli military strikes on Iran killed Ali Khamenei. There are reports of hundreds of civilian casualties too on a population that's already paid a heavy human price for standing up to the regime.(Photo: A protester flashes a victory sign in front of a fire during a demonstration in Shahin Shahr, Isfahan, Iran, on 9 January , 2026.

Israel has deployed soldiers on the ground in southern Lebanon and is carrying out heavy airstrikes in the country as conflict in the Middle East continues to spread.

America launched a coordinated joint attack with Israel on Iran, in an operation known as Operation Epic Fury," which led to the death of the second supreme leader of Iran, Ali Khamenei. Many in the mainstream media were quick to denounce the attacks, and some media outlets quickly began spreading the false story that the attack also hit an elementary school, when in reality it was a failed launch within the Middle East that hit the school. Glenn also brings in his chief researcher, Jason Buttrill, to lay out how America got to this point and what we can expect in the coming months. Retired Lt. Col. Jonathan Conricus, former Israel Defense Forces spokesperson, joins to give his assessment of the U.S.-Israeli strikes on Iran. Author of "The Terminal List" book series and executive producer of the TV series of the same name Jack Carr joins to discuss the strikes against Iran from a fiction author's perspective. Glenn lays out what he believes is Trump's true objective in striking Iran and why he believes the strikes were warranted. After a weekend of thought, Glenn gives his four conclusions regarding the U.S.-Israeli strike on Iran. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
