Iranians turn on the regime as fear wanes: Is the ‘hour of freedom’ near? | Eye for Iran | EP 120 |
Can the Islamic Republic survive a deepening economic crisis, growing resistance at home and a war with the United States?On this week’s episode of Eye for Iran, British-Iranian comedian Omid Djalili and Iran International’s Arash Sohrabi examine the dark humor spreading across Iran as people struggling to afford basic necessities publicly mock the regime and turn its own language of fear against it. Djalili explains why he believes the phenomenon shows that “the fear is gone.”
The episode also looks at what Washington is prepared to do to help Iranians challenge the Islamic Republic. After President Donald Trump told Iranians that “the hour of your freedom is at hand” and urged them to take over their government once the US is “finished,” Middle East expert Dr. Eric Mandel examines what those words could mean in practice, particularly amid reports that the US-Iran war could continue through the end of Trump’s presidency.
Finally, Eye for Iran examines the hidden cost of surviving Iran’s crackdowns. Shahin Abdolghaderi, who was shot in the head with hundreds of pellets during the 2022 Woman, Life, Freedom protests, and her son Ardalan Mameh describe the chronic pain, displacement and uncertainty they still live with nearly four years later. Their story offers a chilling warning of what may lie ahead for survivors wounded in Iran’s January 8 and 9 crackdown.
Guests: Omid Djalili, Arash Sohrabi, Dr. Eric Mandel, Dr. Sara Raza, Shahin Abdolghaderi and Ardalan Mameh.
