| 6/26/26 | ![]() Trump's Iran MoU explained: how Iran gets billions—and why | Eye for Iran 109 | The new US-Iran Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) could unlock tens of billions of dollars for Tehran and fundamentally reshape Iran's economic and political future. Host Negar Mojtahedi speaks with former US Treasury sanctions official Max Meizlish, economist Mohamad Machine-Chian, former US military intelligence officer Michael Pregent, and Iran analyst Omid Memarian to explain what the agreement means for sanctions, the IRGC, Qatar, China and post-Khamenei Sr. Iran.In this episode:Max Meizlish, a former Treasury Department Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) official, explains why General License X could provide "unconditioned, unrestricted sanctions relief," potentially giving Tehran access to tens of billions of dollars. He argues the IRGC stands to receive a significant financial windfall and warns that China could emerge as one of the agreement's biggest beneficiaries.Mohamad Machine-Chian examines whether the agreement can stabilize Iran's economy. He explains why FATF restrictions, Iran's isolated banking system and entrenched corruption remain major obstacles, while arguing the new funds could help Iran's Central Bank avoid a deeper inflation crisis.Former US military intelligence officer Michael Pregent argues Qatar wielded extraordinary influence during the negotiations, warning that "Every Qatari negotiated outcome is a failure for US national security." He explains why he believes the agreement echoes the concessions made during the JCPOA and what it could mean for future US policy toward Iran.Omid Memarian, Director of Communications at DAWN, says the Islamic Republic is entering an "identity crisis" following the death of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. He predicts the next battle will unfold inside the regime itself, as competing factions fight to define Iran's future and the next phase of the Islamic Republic.Topics covered:Trump's Iran MOU explainedGeneral License XIran sanctions reliefIran oil exportsThe IRGC and Iran's economyFrozen Iranian assetsQatar's role in the negotiationsChina's influence in IranFATF and Iran's banking systemPost-Khamenei IranInternal power struggles inside the Islamic RepublicUS-Iran relationsMiddle East geopoliticsIf you enjoy in-depth reporting and expert analysis on Iran and the Middle East, subscribe to Eye for Iran and turn on notifications so you never miss a new episode.#iran #iranpodcast #mou #qatar #jdvance #witkoff #kushner #youtube #middleeast #shorts #trump #economy | 1h 26m 58s | ||||||
| 6/19/26 | ![]() The Iran-US MoU explained: what it means for Iranian people | Eye for Iran 108 | Did the new US-Iran Memorandum of Understanding hand Tehran a major victory?In this episode of Eye for Iran, host Negar Mojtahedi breaks down the controversial MOU with former US Assistant Secretary of State for Near Eastern Affairs David Schenker, who argues the agreement delivers significant benefits to the Islamic Republic while leaving major questions unanswered on Iran's nuclear program, ballistic missiles and regional proxies.Then, human rights activist Gazelle Sharmahd joins the program to discuss the reaction among many Iranians who had hoped recent events would lead to meaningful change. Sharmahd reflects on the kidnapping and killing of her father Jamshid Sharmahd, the ongoing executions inside Iran and why she believes many Iranians feel abandoned by the international community.Finally, Iran International correspondent Alireza Modiri and actress and activist Shiva Negar discuss the FIFA World Cup and the emotions surrounding Team Melli. For many Iranians, football has become about far more than sport. From Lion and Sun flags in the stands to debates over national identity, the World Cup has become a reflection of the deep divisions and complicated feelings shaping modern Iran.Topics:• US-Iran MOU explained• Did Iran win the deal?• David Schenker's analysis• Gazelle Sharmahd on her father's murder• Human rights in Iran• Team Melli and the FIFA World Cup• Lion and Sun flags• Why Iranians are divided• Iran, Hezbollah and Lebanon• The future of US-Iran relationsGuests:David Schenker – Former US Assistant Secretary of State for Near Eastern Affairs and Senior Fellow at The Washington InstituteGazelle Sharmahd – Human Rights Activist and daughter of Jamshid SharmahdAlireza Modiri – Correspondent, Iran InternationalShiva Negar – Actress and ActivistHost:Negar MojtahediSubscribe for more Eye for Iran interviews, analysis and reporting from inside and outside Iran.Chapters: 00:01: 39 Did Iran Win the MOU? | David Schenker Breaks Down the Deal00:22:42 "Iranians Feel Betrayed" | Gazelle Sharmahd on the Human Cost00:39:41 FIFA & Team Melli | Why Iranians Are Divided at the World Cup#iran #trump #lebanon #israel #MOU #irandeal #podcast #news #irannews #iranpodcast #youtube #sportify #shorts | 1h 04m 20s | ||||||

| 2/27/26 | ![]() EU lawmaker to Iran's regime: “Your time is up” | Eye for Iran | EP 92 | | "Your time is up.”A senior European lawmaker from Malta delivers a direct message to Tehran on this episode of Eye for Iran. Daniel Attard — Member of the European Parliament and Vice-Chair of the European Parliament’s Delegation for Relations with Iran — calls for tougher action against the Islamic Republic following its deadly crackdown on protesters, urging Europe to expel Iranian diplomats, halt trade, and increase pressure on the regime while standing firmly with the Iranian people.“The time for negotiation is over. We must match the courage of the people of Iran,” Attard tells Eye for Iran, arguing that the European Union must support Iran’s opposition — not its oppressors — and act when a regime turns its violence against its own citizens.We then break down President Donald Trump’s State of the Union warning about Iran’s expanding ballistic missile program and the implications of ongoing Geneva talks. Joining the panel are Janatan Sayeh, Research Analyst at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies (FDD); Shayan Sami’i, national security analyst and former U.S. government appointee; and Shahram Kholdi, international security and law analyst and Middle East historian. The panel examines whether Washington’s shifting rhetoric signals a turning point in U.S. policy toward Iran.Finally, we present our joint Iran International–Free Press investigation with Jay Solomon, investigative reporter at The Free Press, uncovering how the Islamic Republic built and spread a coordinated disinformation campaign blaming a CIA-Mossad conspiracy for what was in fact a homegrown uprising. Using digital forensic analysis and investigative reporting, the investigation traces how Tehran’s narrative spread globally and helped obscure accountability for the January massacre.Contents of this video: 00:00 “Your time is up” — EU message to Tehran00:10 What’s coming up on Eye for Iran (EU action, Trump, Geneva, investigation)00:02:29 Interview begins: Daniel Attard (EU Parliament)00:03:04 R2P: “Sovereignty can’t be a shield”00:04:26 “No more business as usual” — halt trade, shut embassies00:05:37 Geneva talks: why Attard says negotiations must end00:06:28 What the EU should do now: sanctions, IRGC, accountability00:07:41 Why IRGC designation took so long + closing embassies00:09:06 Will Europe actually expel diplomats and cut ties?00:10:22 Attard’s message to Iranians: “Your courage is seen”00:11:11 Attard to the regime: “Your time is up” (again)00:11:25 Trump’s missile warning: what it means for Europe00:13:34 The human toll: Attard reacts emotionally to images of the killings00:16:01 Panel begins: Trump’s tone + Geneva talks (Sayeh, Sami’i, Kholdi)00:17:30 Is this a prelude to war? 3 pillars: nukes, missiles, human rights00:19:21 Tehran’s reaction + rebuild after the “12-day war”00:23:39 What is Washington waiting for? legitimacy vs. delay00:26:09 How long can this go on? signs of escalation00:28:11 Next steps: deterrence, force posture, and consequences00:32:14 Is there bipartisan consent? avoiding Iraq/Afghanistan mistakes00:35:27 Investigation segment begins: the CIA/Mossad disinfo lie (Jay Solomon)00:36:04 When it became a coordinated information operation00:38:19 The “TikTok” version: how Tehran seeded the narrative before the massacre00:40:01 Western influencers + the far-left/far-right convergence00:41:22 Bots and amplification: Russia-linked networks + inauthentic traffic00:43:31 Why accountability vanished: how disinfo buried the massacre00:44:46 Mossad/Pompeo posts: how the regime weaponized them00:47:00 What Tehran might do next if strikes happen: incitement + hybrid warfare00:49:48 Why the world didn’t respond: blackout + parallel narrative toolkit00:51:34 Jay’s biggest worry: collapse of verified media, rise of paid narratives00:53:04 Outro + newsletter plug#iran #irannews #iranpodcast #iranrevolution #israel #usa #trump #eu #youtube #youtubeshorts #news #eyeforiran #politics #shorts | 53m 34s | ||||||
| 2/20/26 | ![]() Iran Massacre: “a final bullet in hospital,” says father of slain teen | Eye for Iran | EP 91 | Seventeen-year-old Sam Afshari was wounded during Iran’s January protests and taken to a hospital in Karaj, where doctors were trying to save his life. According to his father, Parviz Afshari, security forces entered the room while a breathing tube was still in his mouth — and fired a final, fatal shot.On this episode of Eye for Iran, we speak with Sam’s father, who is now calling for justice — and for the end of the Islamic Republic — after his son was killed following detention during the nationwide crackdown that left tens of thousands dead.Then, as Iranian officials prepare to appear before United Nations human rights bodies in Geneva, UN Watch Executive Director Hillel Neuer calls for a diplomatic walkout and accountability for the regime’s actions.And as a reported end-of-February nuclear deadline approaches, threats escalate from Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and military deployments intensify — including the arrival of the USS Ford carrier strike group. Is diplomacy running out of time? Is war now imminent?Featuring analysis from Dr. Casey Babb, Director at the Macdonald-Laurier Institute; Peter Roff, Contributing Editor at Newsweek; and Adelle Nazarian, Senior Fellow at the Gold Institute for International Strategy.#iran #iranprotests #unitednations #war #usa | 1h 26m 18s | ||||||
| 2/13/26 | ![]() 'A plea for help': why are Iranian people watching the skies?| Eye for Iran | EP 90 | A high stakes week in Washington raises one question: are we watching “good cop bad cop” diplomacy that is really a prelude to military strikes on the Islamic Republic? After President Donald Trump meets Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and US military deployments intensify, Dr. Eric Mandel, founder and director of MEPIN (Middle East Political and Information Network), and Ambassador John Craig, a former American diplomat, unpack the pressure campaign on Tehran, the tight circle around Trump and why one guest calls this moment a prequel to military action.Then the human reality behind the geopolitics. Mina, speaking from Germany with her identity protected, shares what she is hearing from inside Iran after the January 8 and 9 killings, including the story of slain protester Hamid Reza Najari and two imprisoned brothers. She describes a level of desperation many outside Iran struggle to grasp: people monitor air traffic every night hoping intervention is coming because they feel they have no way left to fight a brutal state with empty hands.Finally, former UK ambassador to Saudi Arabia Sir John Jenkins explains the Persian Gulf states’ private calculations. Many would like Iran to change but fear the consequences of sudden collapse, regional spillover and unpredictable escalation.

| 2/5/26 | ![]() “Day of infamy” and why the regime can’t kill its way out | Eye for Iran | EP 89 | “You cannot kill your way out of this.”That is how Iranian-American historian Abbas Milani describes the Islamic Republic’s response to Iran’s latest uprising, a crackdown he calls unprecedented in modern Iranian history.In this episode of Eye for Iran, Milani explains why mass killing and mass arrests have exposed the regime’s political death rather than restoring control. Drawing on new research documenting thousands of protests across Iran, he argues that fear no longer works, resistance is cumulative and the Islamic Republic cannot survive by violence alone. He also examines the chain of command behind the crackdown, the role of the IRGC and why negotiations with Tehran after mass killings risk throwing a lifeline to a sinking regime.The conversation then turns to the international response with Major Andrew Fox and Jake Wallis Simons, co-hosts of The Brink podcast. Fox, a conflict researcher and senior associate fellow at the Henry Jackson Society, served 16 years in the British Army from 2005 to 2021. Together, they assess whether diplomacy is buying time for Tehran, break down US options and warn that attempts to tame the regime risk normalizing mass killing.The episode concludes with frontline testimony from physicians documenting the human cost of the crackdown. Dr. Homa Fathi and Dr. Panteha Rezaeian of the AIDA Health Alliance describe hospital raids, doctors arrested for treating protesters and a growing epidemic of untreated wounds and preventable deaths as fear keeps the injured away from care.Contents for this video:00:00 Cold open: “You can’t kill your way out of this”00:00 Iran’s darkest chapter and the information war00:02 Doctors targeted for treating protesters00:02 Abbas Milani: how unprecedented is this crackdown00:06 Why the regime can’t murder its way to survival00:08 Friday talks: what is even left to negotiate00:13 A crackdown planned for decades00:16 Chain of command: how mass repression is executed00:19 Tehran’s soft power and influence networks00:23 Why negotiations fail and what comes next00:29 Andrew Fox and Jake Wallace-Simons join00:33 Trump’s options: deal, strikes, or “taming” the regime00:40 Can a “Maduro model” work in Iran00:51 Why Trump told protesters “help is coming”01:00 The information war in Western streets01:08 Doctors and AIDA Health Alliance: arrests, raids, snipers01:17 Virtual clinic and the epidemic of infected wounds01:29 Patients taken mid-treatment and what the world must do01:34 Closing#iran #iranprotests #freeiran #youtube #news #podcast #trump #negotiations #eyeforiran | 1h 34m 43s | ||||||

Col. Jonathan Conricus analyzes what potential US and Israeli military action could look like, which targets could weaken the regime’s command structure and what must follow to prevent chaos in a post-Islamic Republic Iran.Human rights activist and former political prisoner Shiva Mahboubi shares disturbing reports of detainees being forcibly injected and killed in custody, a hidden campaign of repression unfolding inside Iran’s prisons.Retired US federal judge Mark Wolf, chair of Integrity Initiatives International, explains how Iranian regime kleptocrats and their enablers could one day be held accountable and how stolen billions abroad may be frozen, seized and repatriated.Finally, analyst Khosrow Esfahani breaks down the regime’s escalating war of narratives and disinformation as Tehran seeks division while Iranians press forward with pain and resolve.Four conversations.

| 1/23/26 | ![]() Iran is bleeding: Will the world act now? | Eye for Iran | EP 87 | As Iran’s streets turn into killing fields, the debate in Washington is no longer theoretical. Eye for Iran examines the Islamic Republic’s escalating violence against civilians under a near total digital blackout and asks the most urgent question yet: what will the world do now?Michael Makovsky, President and CEO of the Jewish Institute for National Security of America (JINSA), and Blaise Misztal, the Institute’s Vice President for Policy, argue the United States should pursue one clear objective: regime collapse. They explain why this moment may be a rare strategic window, what collapse could unlock for US policy and regional security and what concrete steps could weaken the regime while supporting Iranians risking their lives.Democracy and internet freedom activist Mehdi Yahyanejad then shares what his sources inside Iran are reporting despite the blackout, including how censorship, propaganda and fear are shaping what the world can and cannot see. He describes the role of Starlink access, the dangers faced by those sending information out and the stories emerging from the crackdown.Finally, Dr. Nazak Tavakoli of the Iranian Association of Human Rights and Allies, political activist Iman Vaez and Jerusalem Center for Security and Foreign Affairs contributor Sogand Fakheri come together for a deeply personal conversation about grief, resilience and the human cost of this uprising, as families inside Iran vanish into silence and the diaspora struggles to respond.Subscribe for ongoing coverage of Iran’s uprising, the regime’s bloody crackdown and the global decisions that may shape what happens next.Contents of this video: 00:00:00 Cold open: eyewitness accounts under blackout00:00:25 Opening montage: “war on civilians” framing00:01:14 Segment 1 teaser: regime collapse argument (Makovsky + Misztal)00:02:55 Show open + guest introductions (Makovsky, Misztal)00:03:32 What does “regime collapse” actually mean00:05:07 Regime change vs. regime collapse: key distinction00:05:59 What collapse would unlock for US + region00:09:12 Does this moment have a “window”00:11:31 Trump red line: credibility, consequences, deterrence00:15:04 Most effective next step for Washington00:16:15 Building a long-term “collapse strategy” (comms, defections, pressure)00:20:41 Mixed signals: Witkoff, negotiation talk, military moves00:23:55 Where is this headed + closing thoughts (Segment 1 wrap)00:26:34 Segment 2 intro: Mehdi Yahyanejad (internet freedom + sources inside Iran)00:27:09 What he’s hearing now: fear, shock, missing loved ones00:28:51 Starlink pipeline + protecting identities00:35:29 Paint the picture: escalation, tactics, scale of violence00:41:32 Disinformation + confusion as a regime tactic00:49:09 Stories weighing on him most + what Iranians want from the world00:58:38 Victims + the human toll (Segment 2 wrap)01:01:03 Segment 3 intro: Nazak Tavakoli, Iman Vaez, Sogand Fakheri01:01:55 How they’re holding up: trauma, grief, resolve01:07:03 Family and friends back home: silence, fear, loss01:11:13 “This is war on unarmed people”01:11:36 Nazak’s story: legacy, missing contact, waiting for news01:16:14 Nazak on her father and the long shadow of repression01:22:03 Iman: messages from inside Iran + the diaspora’s role01:30:19 Message to Iranians: don’t lose hope01:32:19 Imagining Iran after: dignity, remembrance, rebuilding01:34:40 Closing thanks + sign-off + where to follow / newsletter#iran #iranprotests #usa #trump #iranrevolution #freeiran #podcast #iranpodcast #news #youtube #youtubeshorts | 1h 35m 32s | ||||||
| 1/16/26 | ![]() Inside Iran's killing spree: eyewitness speaks out | Eye for Iran | EP 86 | An eyewitness who recently fled Iran and whose identity is being withheld for his safety recounts indiscriminate gunfire that turned city streets into a battlefield.
