15 months ago, Syria finally saw an end to the nearly 14 years of civil war after the ousting of Syrian Dictator Bashar Al-Assad.
Now, as the US and Israel's war on neighboring Iran only escalates while they continue calls for Iranian civilians to "take over" their government, the question remains: could a Western-backed, civilian-led uprising come to fruition in Iran? And how much more difficult would regime change be there versus a country like Syria?
Who better to ask than Middle East journalist and Pulitzer Prize finalist Anand Gopal – whose newest book, Days of Love and Rage, reports in-depth on Syria's civil war. In this 'Mehdi Unfiltered' interview, Gopal explains to Mehdi which lessons from Syria's civil war are relevant for Iran today.
