Podcasts about Iran

Dave Rubin of "The Rubin Report" talks to Scott Jennings about the arrest of Venezuela's Nicolás Maduro and what it signals for U.S. foreign policy; how the speed and competence of Trump-era military and law-enforcement operations in Venezuela and Iran have shocked the world; the importance of defending and enforcing the Monroe Doctrine against China and Russia in the Western Hemisphere; why Trump's practices are smart, limited engagement—not endless wars; how antisemitism is driving criticism of Israel and Trump, what a post-Maduro Venezuela could look like; the Minnesota fraud scandal and the collapse of Tim Walz's reelection bid; how independent journalist Nick Shirley exposed billions in alleged immigration-linked fraud ignored by mainstream media; how the story shattered the left's immigration narrative; how the Democrats are self sabotaging their midterm election chances by nominating socialist candidates in purple districts; how New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani's early actions look even worse than expected; the future of Western Europe, warning that countries like France and the UK face cultural and political decline without strong leadership; how mass immigration, crime, and feckless elites are destabilizing Europe and distorting foreign policy; how fringe radical progressive ideology has hijacked the Democratic Party, pushing it to lose on key 80/20 issues like immigration, climate, and gender politics; why Democrats will struggle electorally unless they shed radicalism ahead of 2028; and much more.

Michael Wolff joins Joanna Coles to unpack the central illusion of Trump's presidency: that someone, somewhere knows what is going on—when in fact nobody does, least of all Trump himself. From Iran's uprising to Venezuela's phantom “invasion,” Wolff explains how Trump exploits uncertainty by announcing conflicts he has no intention of prosecuting, using noise, grandiosity, and endless talking to stay at the center of attention while avoiding real risk or consequence. The conversation ranges from ICE and Minneapolis to Greenland, shoes, height, and the limits of loyalty, before landing on the most dangerous question of all: What happens when Trump's talent for manufactured crises collides with a real one—Russia, Iran, or a nuclear threat he cannot simply talk his way out of?

The world is shifting fast and this episode dives straight into the heart of the storm. As mass protests erupt across Iran, shocking footage shows Iranian students openly rejecting regime slogans like “Death to Israel” and “Death to America.” At the same time, Russia is reportedly evacuating its embassy from Israel, signaling that something far bigger may be unfolding behind the scenes. In this powerful episode of The Land of Israel Guys Podcast, we unpack: What the Iranian protests really mean—and whether the regime is losing control Why Russia's embassy evacuation from Israel could signal an imminent escalation How Israel, the United States, and President Trump may be coordinating major strategic moves The collapse of Iran's proxy network, including Hamas, Hezbollah, the Houthis, and Venezuela The rise of a spiritual and ideological war beneath the military conflict How foreign funding, media influence, and cultural shifts in the West are shaping this global battle Why biblical prophecy may be converging with modern geopolitics in real time This is not just another Middle East update. It's a deep conversation about power, ideology, faith, and the future of Israel and the world and why the next few weeks could change history.

On Friday's Mark Levin Show, there needs to be Republican unity ahead of the midterm elections. Any fraying or splintering—such as a handful of Republicans voting against President Trump's interests on key legislation—could lead to electoral losses, ended careers for some lawmakers, and two years of investigations and allegations plaguing the administration and supporters. Republicans must support the President's agenda, as Democrats are in a weak position with low ratings, but GOP disunity could hand them victories and drag down the party and conservative movement. Also, an Iranian regime collapse would reduce oil flows to Communist China from Iran and Venezuela. The Iranian people who are seeking freedom are enduring a horrendous police state amid widespread protests involving all ages, families, and backgrounds, despite being disarmed. The Iranian protestors need our help now, there needs to be immediate U.S. military action, without troops, to help. Later, there's an intentional invasion and a failure to act will lead to losing everything, as has happened in London, Paris, Canada, Australia, and now New York City. The Democrat Party is devoured by Stalinist and Islamist elements. There's a dark time in the country with escalating leftist violence backed by Democrat mayors and funded militias from billionaires and foreign entities like Qatar, aiming to overthrow the nation through groups like Cair. Finally, Jim Trusty calls in to break down the legal aspect of the ICE shooting in Minneopolis and Hamas supporters in NYC. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

IRAN IS MORE THAN PERSIA: A DIVERSE MOSAIC OF ETHNIC MINORITIES Colleague Brenda Shaffer. Brenda Shaffer discusses her book, Iran is More than Persia, arguing that Iran is not a monolithic Persian state but a diverse mosaic where ethnic minorities comprise roughly half the population. She explains how the 20th-century shift to Persian nationalism marginalized groups like the Azerbaijanis, Kurds, and Baluch. Shaffer notes that current anti-regime protests involve these previously pacified groups, highlighting the regime's failure to fully subjugate peripheral regions like Sistan-Baluchistan. NUMBER 11890 TEHRAN

THE HOSTAGE CRISIS, THE IRAN-IRAQ WAR, AND THE CARTER DOCTRINE Colleague Brandon Weichert. Focusing on the aftermath of the 1979 revolution, this segment explores the American hostage crisis and the subsequent Iran-Iraq War initiated by Saddam Hussein in 1980. Hussein attacked to exploit Iran's post-revolutionary chaos and seize the Shatt al-Arab waterway, fearing the spread of radical Islamism. Weichert explains the Carter Doctrine, which committed the US to military intervention to protect Persian Gulf interests, a policy expanded by the "Reagan Corollary." The discussion notes that neither the American public nor the administration fully grasped the deep-seated grievances fueling the Iranian revolution. SHADOW WAR BY BRANDON WEICHERT NUMBER 21917 BAGHDAD

 IRAN'S QUEST FOR SUPREMACY AND FUTURE NUCLEAR NEGOTIATIONS Colleague Brandon Weichert. Weichert discusses Iran's ultimate goal of regional supremacy, describing the regime as the "octopus brain" directing proxies like Hamas and Hezbollah to attack Israel. He notes that his book anticipated the proxy attacks that occurred on October 7. Looking forward, Weichert analyzes potential US responses, contrasting the flaws of the original JCPOA—specifically its sunset clauses which would have allowed nuclear weapons by 2025—with a potentially tougher stance under a second Trump term. The segment concludes with the grim warning that the regime may choose destruction over abandoning its nuclear ambitions. SHADOW WAR BY BRANDON WEICHERT NUMBER 41960 NASSER IN DAMASCUS

SHIFTS IN US POLICY AND THE RISE OF THE SHIA CRESCENT Colleague Brandon Weichert. This section tracks US policy shifts from Clinton's diplomatic attempts to the unintended consequences of the 2003 Iraq War. Weichert argues that removing Saddam Hussein eliminated a check on Iranian power, allowing Tehran to establish a "Shia Crescent" of influence stretching to Lebanon. The conversation covers the deep Sunni-Shia hostility and Iran'sstrategic co-opting of the Palestinian cause to weaken Israel. It also critiques the Obama administration's JCPOA, describing it as a failed attempt to equalize regional power between Iran and Israel, and traces Iran's nuclear ambitions back to Eisenhower's "Atoms for Peace" program. SHADOW WAR BY BRANDON WEICHERT NUMBER 31897 DAMASCUS

US INTERVENTION IN IRAN: FROM OPERATION AJAX TO THE SHAH'S FALL Colleague Brandon Weichert. This segment introduces Brandon Weichert's book, The Shadow War, and examines the history of USinterference in Iran. It details Ambassador William Sullivan's 1978 "Thinking the Unthinkable" memo, which suggested the Carter administration prepare for the Shah's removal as he weakened. The discussion highlights how the USconsidered Ayatollah Khomeini a potential replacement to stabilize Iran, a massive miscalculation. It also revisits the 1953 Operation Ajax, clarifying that pro-Western Iranian military forces, aided by the British and CIA, ousted Prime Minister Mosaddegh after he attempted to consolidate power and nationalize oil. SHADOW WAR BY BRANDON WEICHERT NUMBER1850 TEHRAN

THE OCTOPUS STRATEGY: IRAN'S PROXIES AND ISRAEL'S COUNTERATTACK Colleague Seth Frantzman. Frantzman employs the "octopus" metaphor to describe Iran as the central brain directing proxies like Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Houthis to encircle Israel. He details Hamas's October 7 strategy: massacre civilians, seize hostages, and retreat to human shields and tunnels to await international pressure on Israel. The conversation outlines the IDF's counter-strategy, which involved cutting Gaza in half via the Netzarim corridor and systematically clearing areas from north to south. Frantzman notes the extensive tunnel network discovered in Khan Yunis, which served as a learning ground for IDF anti-tunnel operations. OCTOBER 7 WAR BY SETH FRANTZMAN NUMBER 31868 NAZARETH

Protestors all across Iran continue to take to the streets calling for the ouster of Ayatollah Khamenei in what is being called the most serious challenge to the regime in years. Tehran has cut off all internet and foreign phone calls as bonfires and debris litter the streets of the capital and other cities in the country.

Since then, Peyman has run for federal office, and now hosts his own podcasts where he is trying to educate Canadians on the core issues facing this nation.
