Drawing on reports and her own sources from within Iran, she explains how executions surged in the months that followed the 12 Day War, how protests were crushed using non-Iranian forces, and why these tactics point to a system under enormous strain.Dr Gindin describes how funerals have turned into protests, why mosques are being burned as symbols of oppression, and why removing the Supreme Leader might not dismantle the regime.The conversation also examines how Iranian regime narratives continue to shape Western media and academic analysis, and why protesters inside Iran are rallying around Reza Pahlavi.👁‍🗨 Watch if you want to understand how Iran’s uprisings will develop in the coming weeks and months.💬 We Discuss:🇮🇷 The surge in executions after the war in June🔥 The regime’s use of foreign militias against protesters🕌 The breakdown of religious legitimacy⚔️ Why removing one leader would not end the system🧠 How Western analysis misunderstands Iran👑 Who is Reza Pahlavi and why protestors chant his name🌍 What type of external pressure could actually change outcomes🔔 Subscribe for more conversations on Iran, power and global affairs.📲 Follow JonathanOn X: https://x.com/jonsacOn Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jonathansacerdoti/On Substack: https://jonsac.substack.com🙏🏻Help me make more of these videos:Donate: https://jonathansacerdoti.com/donate👇 Comment below — will the US act to end the regime, or has the moment passed?#Iran #IranProtests #IslamicRepublic #MiddleEast #RezaPahlavi #JonathanSacerdoti #TamarEilamGindin
