On this episode of Ami's House, the hosts discuss the breaking reality of a direct conflict between Israel and the Iranian regime. We explore the internal rift in the conservative movement between the "America First" isolationists and those who see Iran as an existential threat to the West.We dive into specific critiques from Matt Walsh and analyze Constantine Kisin's perspective on the risks of regime change in the Middle East. Was the strike on Iran an act of aggression or a long-overdue act of self-defense? We also tackle the uncomfortable rise of anti-Semitic tropes among "isolationist" commentators and clarify the strategic alliance between the U.S. and Israel.Join us for a conversation on the "3D chess" of Middle Eastern politics and why the fall of the Khamenei regime might be the most significant event since the fall of the Berlin Wall.

Trump says many potential Iranian leaders are already dead and hints at what could come next if the regime collapses. The panel debates whether the strategy is regime change or full regime collapse, and what history teaches about rebuilding nations after war.

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.

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. Editor David Horovitz joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. US President Donald Trump on Tuesday denied that Israel dragged the US into war with Iran, insisting that if anything, the opposite could be true and that he felt Iran was going to attack first. These remarks come as politicians and media influencers on both sides of the US aisle condemn "Israel's war" and point their fingers at the Jewish state. In the first half of the program, we take a deep dive into Iran's greater existential threat to the Mideast -- and the world at large. Which nations appear to start internalizing that the extremist Islamist nation may actually do what it threatens it will? In the second half, we talk about the opportunity afforded at this time for Iranians to rise up and change their regime. It would be, posits Horovitz, more possible to see some form of "total victory" against the terror regime, as opposed to wiping out Hezbollah in Lebanon and Hamas in Gaza. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

The death of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei at the hands of the United States marks the end of nearly four decades of authoritarian theocracy in Iran. Hawk reads and analyzes a piece from The Atlantic by Karim Sadjadpour examining Khamenei's life, his ruthless consolidation of power through the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, and how the Islamic Republic of Iran was built on three ideological pillars: death to America, death to Israel, and the forced covering of women. Drawing direct parallels to the Taliban in Afghanistan, Hawk walks through the Taliban's systematic oppression of women since retaking power in 2021, from banning girls from school after age 12 to prohibiting women from appearing in public without a burka. The comparison extends to white Christian nationalism, Project 2025, and the Heritage Foundation, examining how fundamentalist religion across Islam, Christianity, and other faiths has long been weaponized by insecure men to control and silence women and girls. The IRGC's role as Khamenei's political and economic power base mirrors how Trump has used loyal institutions to consolidate control. Eric Hoffer's observation that mass movements require belief in a devil, not God, applies as much to MAGA's targeting of immigrants, trans people, and the left as it did to Khamenei's America. The Iranian government's killing of 7,000 to 10,000 protesters over economic grievances, while spending on proxy wars instead of healthcare, parallels Republican cuts to Medicaid and SNAP alongside a $200 billion ICE budget. Khamenei lived by death to America and death to Israel. Those are exactly the forces that killed him.

Israel expands strikes across Iran overnight as Tehran prepares to choose a new supreme leader, with Ayatollah Khamenei's son emerging as a possible successor. Plus, the Trump administration's rationale for striking Iran keeps shifting. The president now says Tehran was preparing to attack first — contradicting earlier claims the U.S. acted ahead of an Israeli strike. And Texas kicks off the 2026 midterm season with a major Senate primary. Democrats choose a nominee while Republicans head to a runoff.

In the wake of an attack on a British military base in Cyprus, the UK has said it will send an extra warship to the region. Does this make Britain militarily involved in America and Israel's war against Iran? Or was that already true after Prime Minister Keir Starmer allowed Donald Trump to use British bases? Venetia and Roland discuss Europe's growing involvement in the conflict and the countries that are resisting. Iranian-British journalist Nazenin Ansari talks about why she is pro-regime change but doesn't want this war, the brutality of the IRGC, and how Khamenei's son Mojtaba would be just more of the same if picked as his successor. Plus, senior foreign correspondent Sophia Yan sends a dispatch from the Turkish-Iranian border where she has been speaking to fleeing Iranians, and Dr Hanan Balkhy, WHO's Regional Director for the Eastern Mediterranean, explains how the UN's health body prepared for the conflict.

Irans diktator Khamenei vil næppe blive savnet af hans undertrykte og mishandlede landsmænd og kvinder. Han omkom i et missil-angreb lørdag morgen, da israelerne og Trump fik ram på ham. Men - hvorfor gik Trump i krig i Iran? Var det for at hjælpe demonstranter, der blev dræbt i januar i tusindvis? Dræbe Khamenei og sætte nyt styre ind? Stoppe Irans missil-program? Stoppe atomprogrammet? Var det for at komme et iransk angreb på amerikanske interesser i forkøbet, som udenrigsminister Rubio siger - fordi israelerne var på vej med deres angreb? Stoppe iransk støtte til milits-grupper i regionen? Hvorfor gik Trump i krig? For USA var ikke truet af Iran. Der var forhandlinger i gang! Nu breder krigen sig i Mellemøsten, få dage efter den begyndte. Så hvad er Trumps mål? Hvordan ser Iran ud, når han trækker sig ud? Hvem leder landet? Og hvad sker der i Mellemøsten? Har Trump overhovedet en exit-plan? Og amerikanerne - hvad siger de, hvis krigen trækker ud? Det endevender vi i Verden ifølge Gram.

Wie is het eerst door zijn raketten heen? | Russische tanker aangevallen op Middellandse Zee | Nieuwe energieschok voor Europa Israël en de Verenigde Staten voeren een grootschalige bombardementscampagne uit tegen Iran onder de naam Operation Epic Fury, met aanvallen op raketten, drones en regime-doelen rond Teheran en Natanz. Arend Jan Boekestijn en Rob de Wijk duiden hoe officieel wordt gesproken over het stoppen van terreursteun en nucleaire ambities, terwijl de liquidatie van ayatollah Khamenei als ‘bijproduct’ van de operatie wordt weggezet. Zij laten zien hoe het ontbreken van een directe dreiging het internationale recht onder druk zet en binnen de Amerikaanse politiek tot felle discussie leidt. De Straat van Hormuz ligt praktisch stil doordat verzekeraars afhaken en reders de tankerfiles laten oplopen, met serieuze risico’s voor olie- en gasprijzen wereldwijd. Boekestijn en De Wijk bespreken hoe Europese landen klem komen te zitten tussen trouw aan Washington en de noodzaak van energiezekerheid, inclusief de oncomfortabele optie van extra Russisch gas. Ondertussen escaleert de strijd in Libanon en Oekraïne, waardoor de vraag op tafel ligt hoe lang Europa deze geopolitieke spagaat nog volhoudt. Over de Podcast Arend Jan Boekestijn en Rob de Wijk gaan onder leiding van Hugo Reitsma op zoek naar de nieuwe wereldorde. Wat betekenen oorlog, machtspolitiek en economische verschuivingen voor Europa en Nederland? In elke aflevering duiken zij in de geopolitieke actualiteit. In 2022 werd Boekestijn en De Wijk uitgeroepen tot winnaar in de categorie Nieuws & Politiek tijdens de Dutch Podcast Awards Reageren?

Na de dood van ayatollah Khamenei is het aan de overgebleven Iraanse machthebbers om een nieuwe opperste leider naar voren te schuiven. Volgens Iraanse bronnen komt de naam van Mojtaba Khamenei, de zoon van de opperste leider, nu bovendrijven. Wie is deze man, en hoe gaat zo'n opvolging in zijn werk? Daarover Iran-kenner en Bureau Buitenland-collega Abdou Bouzerda.  (08:38) De rol van minderheden in Iran De Amerikaanse inlichtingendienst werkt aan een plan om milities in Iran te bewapenen, om zo een opstand te ontketenen en het regime onder druk te zetten. Dat melden verschillende bronnen aan nieuwszender CNN. In het etnisch verdeelde land zou zulke steun een lont in het kruitvat kunnen zijn, met alle gevolgen van dien. Wie zijn de minderheden in Iran, en hoe kijken zij naar de toekomst van het land? Te gast zijn journalist  Yaghoub Sharhani, die Arabisch-Iraans is, en de Koerdisch-Iraanse filmmaker Beri Shalmashi.  Presentatie: Sophie Derkzen. 

Kriget i Iran är inne på sin femte dag. Enligt rapporter har över 1000 personer dödats och över 5 000 skadats sedan kriget bröt ut. Nu ska Iran också ha valt en ny ledare; Mojtaba Khamenei. Han är son till ayatolla Khamenei som dödades i helgen. Flera områden påverkas av kriget, i Gaza larmas det om att maten är på väg att ta slut och det iranska revolutionsgardet har stängt det viktiga Hormuzsundet där mängder av olja passerar varje dag - hur det kommer påverka omvärlden återstår att se. Vem är Irans nya ledare? Hur kan kriget komma att växa och hur påverkar det resten av världen? Gäst: Johan Mathias Sommarström, utrikeskommentator på Aftonbladet.

Donald Trump says he's liberated the people of Iran to forge their own future, after killing their autocratic leader, the Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. But as the bombing continues and any organised resistance struggles to emerge, is this ethnically diverse land, with thousands of years of history, at risk of breaking up or descending into sectarian division? Nahid Siamdoust of the University of Texas specialises in the politics and culture of the Middle East. She's also part of the Iranian diaspora.Acclaimed journalist Robin Wright of The New Yorker covered Iran from the start of the 1979 revolution, which brought the first ayatollah, Ruhollah Khomeini, to power.  She's sceptical that the United States and Israel can bring change through aerial bombardment.As the regime in Iran fell, a handful of Shia Muslim communities in Australia went into mourning for the Ayatollah, drawing criticism from New South Wales premier Chris Minns. Khamenei was a brutal autocrat, but he was also a spiritual leader to many Shi'ites. Is it the role of the state to decide who a religious community can mourn?  Dr Renae Barker specialises in law and religion at the University of Western Australia law.

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...

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.

Convidado: Hussein Kalout, cientista político e conselheiro do Cebri (Centro Brasileiro de Relações Internacionais). Pelo terceiro dia seguido, Estados Unidos e Israel atacam alvos diversos no Irã – e anunciam que mais tropas e mais caças estão a postos para entrar em ação. A retaliação iraniana também segue seu curso: mísseis e drones atingiram o território israelense e a infraestrutura de países que têm bases militares americanas, como a Arábia Saudita. No Líbano, o grupo extremista Hezbollah, aliado do regime iraniano, abriu um novo front de guerra. E o mapa do Oriente Médio tem cada vez mais alvos de todos os lados. No governo dos Estados Unidos, o secretário da Guerra fala em objetivos de curto prazo, mas Donald Trump já projeta pelo menos cinco semanas de ofensiva e diz que levará “o tempo que for necessário”. Já em Teerã, o regime dos aiatolás ainda lamenta da morte de seu líder supremo, Ali Khamenei, que governou o país por quase quatro décadas, enquanto se reorganiza para definir seu sucessor. Para explicar os arcos de aliança que estão formados no Oriente Médio e o processo de sucessão de Khamenei no Irã, Natuza Nery entrevista Hussein Kalout, cientista político e conselheiro do Cebri (Centro Brasileiro de Relações Internacionais). Kalout avalia os riscos de uma escalada militar ainda mais perigosa na região, inclusive em relação ao uso de armas nucleares. E analisa as consequências da escolha do novo líder supremo do regime: se será mais ou menos aberto ao Ocidente. “Um cenário muito mais obscuro”, resume.

“It is a time of fear and worry, but also a time of hope” in Iran after the assassination of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in the early days of the U.S.-Israel assault on the regime in Tehran, said Iranian-American scholar and journalist Arash Azizi. “The first thing [my family in Iran] told me was that they called me to say they were alive after Tehran was hit, and there are hundreds of civilian casualties,” said Azizi, speaking on a wartime edition of the Haaretz Podcast. Of Khamenei, he said “most Iranians are happy to see him gone.” Azizi was sharply critical of U.S. President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s calls for Iranian civilians to rise up and overthrow their regime. “It's absolutely bonkers,” he said. “If you had a population that had organized networks ready to take over, you could imagine perhaps something like that happening. But we don’t. So both Trump and Netanyahu keep saying this, and it makes me wonder, do they really believe it?” He also had harsh words for Iranian exiles like himself, who he said were unprepared for this moment. “We have not done the work, we have not built organizations, we did not get our act together in a way that would be ready to make a successful transition to democracy.” Also on the podcast: Gregg Carlstrom, The Economist’s Dubai-based Middle East correspondent, reports on the growing anger in Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates sparked by the intensity of the Iranian assault that could fuel support among everyday people to pick sides in this conflict. “The question is, what does that mean? Is it allowing America to use bases and Gulf countries to carry out attacks against Iran, or is it going a step further and militarily getting involved with their own warplanes and troops? I think it's more likely that they're willing to do the former than the latter.” Read more: Trump: U.S. Ahead of Schedule in Iran but Can Extend Fighting Beyond Projected 4-5 Weeks Three Israeli Teenage Siblings Among Nine Killed in Iranian Missile Strike on Bomb Shelter Analysis by Amos Harel | As Israeli Defense Officials Push for a Long Offensive, Trump Still Has Doubts Analysis by Zvi Bar'el | Khamenei's Chosen Successor Could Offer Trump a 'Dream Deal' to End the Iran War 'Fire-Starter' or 'Historical Justice'?

Operation Epic Fury, the decisive U.S.-led military campaign authorized by President Trump, has achieved striking early success by crippling Iran's nuclear infrastructure, ballistic missile stockpiles, air defenses, and key Revolutionary Guard command centers shortly after launch. Executed in close partnership with Israel — whose parallel Operation Roaring Lion delivered precision strikes, including the confirmed elimination of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei — the joint effort combined overwhelming American airpower, stealth bombers, and advanced drones with Israel's deep intelligence and targeted capabilities to rapidly overwhelm Iranian defenses. Supporters hail the operation's progress as a historic demonstration of peace through strength, delivering devastating blows to the regime's terror apparatus and nuclear ambitions ahead of schedule while minimizing prolonged escalation.

President Donald Trump addresses the nation following U.S. military strikes on Iran, as tensions explode across the globe. With Ayatollah being taken out and Iran responding with fiery rhetoric, the geopolitical stakes have never been higher.The fallout ignites fierce debate at home — with Sen. John Fetterman surprisingly backing Trump's decision, and voices like Tucker Carlson, Ben Shapiro, Michael Knowles, and Matt Walsh clashing over whether the strike protects America or pushes us toward war.At the United Nations, Mike Waltz fires back at Iran's ambassador. Meanwhile, critics from Thomas Massie to Marjorie Taylor Greene question whether this move aligns with “America First.”On the left, reactions range from media sympathy headlines to shocking commentary from activists and politicians, including Kamala Harris, Jane Fonda, and Cenk Uygur.
