Podcasts about Iranians

Tommy and Ben discuss the ways in which the war in Iran seems to be spiraling out of control, from American service member deaths and devastating civilian casualties to Iranian drone strikes on embassies and the mounting global economic fallout. Meanwhile, the White House's explanation for why the war started keeps getting more absurd. The guys unpack the claim that an impending Israeli strike somehow forced Trump's hand, JD Vance's reported push to “go big,” and the deep uncertainty around who might fill the leadership vacuum in Iran. Finally, they discuss the latest from Cuba and Lindsey Graham's open call for regime change, and do a special deep dive on FBI Director Kash Patel's extremely online girlfriend. Then, Ben speaks with Rep. Yassamin Ansari, who is Iranian-American, about the mixed emotions of the diaspora and what Congress can do about a war they weren't consulted on.For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.

On Tuesday's Mark Levin Show, Special Envoy to the Middle East Steve Witkoff calls in to break down his stunning negotiations with the Iranian regime before President Trump made his decision to attack. These meetings were to explore whether a verifiable, enforceable nuclear deal was possible under Trump.  From the outset, the Iranians asserted that uranium enrichment was Iran's inalienable right and declared their large stockpile of enriched material—approximately 22,000 pounds—was off the table for negotiation. This could yield about 11 nuclear bombs if further enriched. Witkoff and Jared Kushner quickly became skeptical of Iran's willingness to make acceptable concessions. These meetings convinced Witkoff and Kushner that Iran had no genuine interest in a civilian nuclear program. Instead, Iran sought to disguise an ongoing research and development effort to maintain enrichment flexibility and breakout capability.  Rejecting the no-enrichment deal revealed their true motivations were not civilian but weapons-oriented, allowing rapid production of enough material for dozens of bombs if unchecked. Witkoff reported these deceptions and unassailable facts to President Trump, who then made a tough, consequential decision in response. Later, our Framers of the Constitution were so brilliant and prescient.  What you see, right now, occurring in Congress, is precisely why the delegates at the Constitutional Convention did not confer war powers on Congress. In fact, the delegates specifically changed the original draft of the Constitution from Congress having the power to make war to the power to declare war. That is, Congress was granted the authority to declare its support for war, not declare war as a condition of making war or going to war.  And it is precisely why declarations of war have never been determinative in whether war is made or not -- since the beginning of our Republic.  It is also why Congress cannot force the commander-in-chief to go to war by the act of declaring war.  Learn more about your ad choices.

(recorded on 3/1/26) - Breht went on Workers' Lit as a guest! "The American ruling class is at war. Physically, they are at war with Iran, pummeling the country with unrelenting airstrikes, slaughtering civilians, and doing their best to make yet another nation unlivable. But they are fighting another war: a psychological war against every one of us. They are building a world of declining literacy, misinformation, confusion, and fear. Combine those two wars and you get an apathetic American populace even as its own country murders untold innocents Breht O'Shea of RevLeft joins Aysha, Jen, and Jacob to discuss these dual wars and how we can fight back."

As the war in the Middle East continues, we visit with 2 people today who are viewing the news through the lens of Scripture. We will visit with Lana Silk, CEO of Transform Iran, who was born in Iran on the day of the Islamic Revolution and later fled with her family due to persecution. Lana’s family formed Transform Iran as a ministry to the Iranian diaspora, which has now grown to include a dynamic ministry to an extensive network of underground churches inside Iran. Then Al Fadi will join us to explain the “theology” of the Iranian regime and why we need to understand Islam as both a religion and a political system.

The U.S. and Israel have declared war on the Islamic Republic of Iran, despite indications from Omani negotiators that the parties were close to agreement as late as the night before the bombing of Tehran and other Iranian cities began. Mainstream media have already cranked up the propaganda machine to frame this as everything from a necessary and just maneuver to an unfortunate turn of events. The anglo-centric framing is undeniable and we risk losing the plot. There’s also a stunning lack of historical perspective in any current analyses. Make no mistake, this is an illegal move conducted by a waning empire that put a madman in charge. And it threatens us all.

Reaction from around the world pours in as the U.S. and Israel strike targets in Iran. Thousands of flights have been canceled across the Middle East and beyond as rattled markets react to higher oil prices. On Tuesday, President Trump and German Chancellor Friedrich Merz signaled a unified front against the regime during a meeting in the Oval Office. Amid reports that the strikes were a preemptive move to neutralize a rapidly advancing Iranian nuclear program, the President acknowledged the risk of future instability while expressing hope for a domestic military stand-down. Alex Gray, former Chief of Staff to the National Security Council, breaks down what he believes led up to this weekend's strike, the "downstream effects" of this escalation, and what it means for other global flashpoints like Ukraine and the South China Sea.Multiple direct military strikes by the U.S. and Israel have killed Iran's top leadership, escalating decades of proxy tensions into a high-stakes, open confrontation. Senior fellow at the Ronald Reagan Institute Tevi Troy joins to discuss how the relationship devolved from a century-old alliance and celebratory parades into a modern struggle against a radical regime.

Many Iranian Americans across California are still in disbelief after the U.S. and Israel launched military strikes in Iran over the weekend. On Saturday, an Israeli airstrike killed Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, who ruled the Islamic Republic of Iran for nearly a half century. Hundreds more have been killed, including at least 6 American military servicemembers. Some Iranian Americans are overjoyed at the death of Khamenei, while others are critical of the U.S. and Israel's involvement in yet another war in the Middle East. Learn more about your ad choices.

On Monday's Mark Levin Show, President Trump will go down as one of the greatest Presidents in history.  He strengthened the border, the military, NATO, and is protecting us from the Iranian regime. The Marxists, Islamists and neo-fascists, like Megyn Kelly and Tucker Carlson, are the enemies from within. They undermine Trump, the military, and our national alliances.  Those media-types and politicians who pretend they don't know what threat the Iranian regime has posed to America are either liars or morons. For 47-years the Iranian regime has threatened to destroy us, has been at war with us, has launched directly and indirectly scores of acts of terrorism, has killed 1,000 of our military heroes and maimed thousands, has killed American citizens, has attempted to assassinate our presidents, and has been developing nuclear and ICBM technology. Every president of both parties has dealt with this, all inadequately until Trump. Every National Security Strategy report issued over the last several decades to Congress has highlighted Iran's threat. Our national security plans have had to deal with it and the frauds and phonies in the media and Democrats pretend they have no idea what the imminent threat is? They want us to wait until we are attacked. Later, this campaign against Iran has been so successful that we're now being joined by France, Britain - even Qatar, Saudi Arabia and other Arab countries. The world is rallying around the United States of America because of our president, because of our military, because of our victories. Afterward, Sen Dave McCormick calls in and praises the U.S. military's spectacular performance in Iran over the last 72 hours. There was exceptional coordination with Israel and more than 2,000 offensive missions that destroyed key Iranian infrastructure and leadership tiers but more work remains to defang the regime.

More To The Story: US and Israeli military strikes against Iran that killed several of the country's top officials, including longtime supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, have ushered in a new and unpredictable era in the Middle East. Within hours, Iran retaliated, striking US allies across the Persian Gulf, including US embassies and a military operations center in Kuwait. At least six US service members had been killed. In Iran, days of military strikes have reportedly killed hundreds of people, including dozens of girls at an elementary school. Davar Ardalan knows Iran inside and out. She lived in the country before the Islamic Revolution, when it was ruled by the shah, and afterward, when it was run by the country's ayatollahs. For more than two decades, she was a journalist at NPR, where she produced major stories about the country. She's also the author of My Name Is Iran: A Memoir, which highlights three generations of women living in both Iran and the US during times of revolution. On this week's episode, Ardalan examines how Iranians inside the country are reacting to the ever-widening conflict, the long history of outside intervention in the region, and who might lead the country moving forward.Producer: Josh Sanburn | Editor: Kara McGuirk-Allison | Theme music: Fernando Arruda and Jim Briggs | Copy editor: Nikki Frick | Digital producer: Artis Curiskis | Deputy executive producer: Taki Telonidis | Executive producer: Brett Myers | Executive editor: James West | Host: Al LetsonRead: What a War Powers Resolution Vote on Iran Actually Means (Mother Jones)Listen: Jeffrey Goldberg on Signalgate, Pete Hegseth, and the Risk of WWIII (More To The Story)Read: My Name Is Iran: A Memoir (Holt) Donate today at Revealnews.org/more Subscribe to our weekly newsletter at Revealnews.org/weekly Follow us on Instagram and Bluesky Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices

President Trump carried out one of the most consequential military operations in recent history, killing 40 of Iran's leaders along with Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

Welcome back to Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu. In this powerful episode, Tom sits down with former CIA covert operative Andrew Bustamante to pull back the curtain on the turbulent state of global affairs. With the Iranian war in full swing and military strategies playing out in real time, Andrew gives listeners an insider's perspective on what's really happening behind government narratives, intelligence reports, and international influence campaigns. Together, Tom Bilyeu and Andrew Bustamante dissect the headlines—from conflicting stories about Iran's nuclear ambitions to the real motivations behind recent US military actions in Iran and Venezuela. Andrew explains how threat assessments are compiled within intelligence agencies, reveals why classified and public narratives often diverge, and offers a candid take on the legacy politics at play in the current administration. But the conversation doesn't stop at geopolitics. The two dive into the evolving role of artificial intelligence in modern warfare and intelligence gathering, discuss the ethical and strategic dilemmas posed by autonomous weapons, and examine the shifting alliances that could define the future balance of power between the US, China, Russia, and the rest of the world. If you're looking to understand the forces shaping global conflict today—and what might be coming next—you won't want to miss this episode. Stay tuned as Tom and Andrew bring clarity to chaos and lay out the possible paths forward in this era of uncertainty. What's up, everybody? It's Tom Bilyeu here: If you want my help...

A.M. Edition for Mar. 3. The State Department is expanding its diplomatic pullback from the Middle East after the U.S. Embassy in Saudi Arabia was attacked by an Iranian drone. Plus, with tourists and expats looking on, Persian Gulf nations have thus far managed to intercept the majority of drones and missiles directed at them by Iran. But Oxford Analytica's Rawan Maayeh explains that the countries are struggling to balance a tough response to Iran's attacks with the desire to end fighting and restore a sense of calm. And limited flight operations resume in Dubai, even as airspace across much of the Middle East remains shut. Luke Vargas hosts. Sign up for the WSJ's free What's News newsletter.

Stew tears apart the fake pretext for Trump's war on Iran – a blatant Zionist conquest funded by AIPAC and the Rothschild banking cabal headquartered in the crime state of Israel.

Tuesday's A.M. Update recaps administration defenses of Operation Epic Fury: Secretary of War Pete Hegseth delivers a fiery frontline message to troops framing the campaign as a generational turning point against Iran's 47-year war on America, while General Dan Caine details synchronized multi-domain strikes to degrade nuclear, missile, naval, and proxy capabilities. President Trump projects 4-5 weeks (or longer if needed) to wipe out Iran's missile force, navy, and nuclear ambitions, with Rubio clarifying preemptive action to avoid higher U.S. casualties from anticipated Iranian retaliation. Friendly fire incident sees Kuwait accidentally down three U.S. F-15s—all pilots eject safely amid warm local rescue. Lebanon's PM bans Hezbollah military actions, Qatar cuts ties after Iranian attacks, and polls show congressional ballot tied with GOP gains.

As 'Operation: Epic Fury' rolls on with great speed and success against the IRGC, the future Iran could be ruled by a group of factions that haven't agreed until recently. In a historic and unprecedented development, a broad cross-section of the Iranian opposition, including monarchists, liberals, and ethnic minority representatives, has formally united under one umbrella: the Iran Freedom Congress (IFC). It marks the first time since 1979 that such ideologically diverse factions have come together in a single organized front. Representatives from these groups met in London late February and will meet again at the end of March to discuss what an Iran free from Ayatollah rule could look like. FOX's Eben Brown speaks with Mehrdad 'Marty' Youssefiani, who served for nearly two decades as chief strategic counselor to Reza Pahlavi, the exiled crown prince and a prominent figure in the Iranian opposition, and Shahryar Ahy, and an advocate for democratic transition in Iran, who says it will take a coalition of opposition groups to stabilize the country.

James Golden aka Bo Snerdley gives a conservative critique of contemporary geopolitics and domestic policy, framed through the host's support for President Trump's assertive "America First" agenda. Golden structures the program around high-stakes international developments, specifically praising Israeli military intelligence and the neutralization of Iranian leadership while highlighting Trump's hardline trade stance against Spain and his criticisms of the UK. The narrative shifts to domestic turmoil as Golden defends DHS Secretary Kristi Noem against bipartisan criticism, characterizing Republican Senator Tom Tillis's disapproval as an adoption of "Democrat talking points." Central to the show's purpose is a stark moral contrast regarding immigration; Golden juxtaposes the tragic stories of American victims of crime with the advocacy of liberal politicians, whom he accuses of prioritizing illegal immigrants over national security. The broadcast concludes by framing Democratic economic and social policies, such as proposed wealth taxes and sanctuary protections, as dangerous threats to the American way of life.

While Roqayah is documenting the lead-up to another Israeli ground invasion of south Lebanon, Kumars and friend of the show Sina Rahmani were finally able to reach fellow friend of the show Navid Zarrinnal in Tehran.  Speaking on the phone as the internet blackout continues, Navid discusses his experience of the bombardment of Tehran, the US and Israel's increasingly untargeted strikes across the country, Western media's psychological warfare against people in Iran, and how Iranians are responding to the assassination of Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei. Sina and Kumars fill Navid in on the abysmal response to this attack in the United States, Iran's ongoing retaliation against Israel and US bases in the region, and the massive mobilization of Shia Muslims in response to the news of Khamenei's martyrdom.

The U.S. and Israel have officially decapitated the Iranian leadership. Co-hosts Jared Yates Sexton and Nick Hauselman break down the first 48 hours of a conflict that is rapidly spiraling out of control. While the administration claims a swift victory, the reality suggests a massive regional war is only just beginning. Donald Trump is already shifting his timeline for the conflict in every media appearance. The hosts examine his rambling press availability where he discussed military projections and ballroom curtains in the same breath. It is clear that the leader of the free world has no long-term goal for this campaign. The conversation dives into the terrifying logistics of the Iranian response. Iran is currently firing missiles in all directions to test the limits of American munitions. The hosts discuss the high cost of defense and the possibility of running out of interceptors within weeks. This episode also covers growing dissent within the American military apparatus. Leaks from the officer class suggest the Pentagon explicitly warned against this strike. Finally, the duo looks at domestic fallout and the immediate push for authoritarian crackdowns. The empire is flagging and the people at the wheel are currently eating the game piec

Over the weekend, President Trump launched Operation Epic Fury, the most ambitious US military operation in decades. In the wake of the 2025 12-Day War, Iran again worked to reconstitute its nuclear weapons program and its missile arsenal. These threats, in combination with the massacre of tens of thousands of Iranians in January, brought the US to the brink of war. The operation has targeted IRGC command, missile defense systems, and senior regime leadership, including the Supreme Leader and his successors. Secretary Hegseth has stated that nothing is off the table, including the possible deployment of ground forces, an option potentially necessary to secure Iran's nuclear materials. Our guest, David Albright, warns that failing to secure those materials will ultimately undermine the operation's success. In the weeks ahead, what indicators will signal whether the regime is truly at risk of collapse? Beyond military targets, what political considerations must be addressed to ensure lasting success once combat operations cease?David Albright is the founder and President of the non-profit Institute for Science and International Security in Washington, D.C. He has written numerous assessments on secret nuclear weapons programs throughout the world, has authored or co-authored nine books and briefed policymakers on non-proliferation policy making.Read the transcript here.Subscribe to our Substack here.

On February 28, the United States and Israel launched a campaign against Iran targeting military infrastructure and the regime's core leadership. Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and several senior officials died in the attacks, which triggered a leadership crisis and inflamed tensions throughout the Middle East.   In the immediate aftermath, Iran launched extensive barrages of drones and ballistic missiles aimed at Israel, US military bases, ​and other targets in neighboring Gulf states. Energy prices rose sharply. This regional shift carries immediate and enduring consequences for global geopolitics and the stability of international energy flows. ​The outcome of the conflict—and the ultimate fate of the Iranian regime—remains deeply uncertain. Even with these open questions, the trajectory of this escalation will likely redefine the future of Middle Eastern security, global power dynamics, and the world's energy markets. How is the conflict evolving, and how might it end? What are the impacts on Gulf states and what are some of the possible paths forward? And how is this all impacting oil and gas markets across the globe? Today on the show, Jason Bordoff speaks with four experts from the Center on Global Energy Policy—Anne-Sophie Corbeau, Richard Nephew, Daniel Sternoff, and Karen Young—to discuss the escalating conflict and its impact on energy and geopolitics. Anne-Sophie is a global research scholar at CGEP, where she focuses on hydrogen and natural gas. She previously worked as a senior analyst at BP and the International Energy Agency. Richard is a senior research scholar at CGEP and formerly served as the US deputy special envoy for Iran under the Biden administration, where he played a key role in negotiations over the Iran nuclear deal.  Daniel is a senior fellow at CGEP and heads its corporate partnership strategy.  Karen is a senior research scholar at CGEP with expertise in the Middle East focusing on geopolitics, the political economy of Gulf states, and energy policy. The Center on Global Energy Policy at Columbia University SIPA is closely following the escalating conflict in Iran and its implications for US national security, Middle East geopolitics, and global energy markets.
