The end of the Supreme Leader is not the end of the battle

Opinion: The war that Tehran has been waging since Khamenei's assassination proves how entrenched the Iranian regime is; Even if the Supreme Leader's death destabilizes the top ayatollahs, changing the face of the regime could be a much more complex task to accomplish

Ron Ben-Yishai | 06.23.25

Toppling the Ayatollah regime is within sight and we should encourage it

Opinion: Israel’s military success has shaken Tehran’s regime, but force alone won’t secure lasting change; To truly end the threat, we must inspire Iran’s people, speak to them directly, and help ignite the momentum for the regime’s collapse from within
