On February 28, 2026, a massive coordinated strike by the United States and Israel decapitated the Iranian leadership and targeted over five thousand sites, signaling the most significant geopolitical shift of the twenty-first century. This episode dives deep into the immediate aftermath of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei’s assassination, the controversial and fragile succession of his son Mojtaba, and the systematic dismantling of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps’ infrastructure across the region. Our panel of experts debates the complex reality of this high-intensity conflict, weighing the potential for a democratic transition in Iran against the terrifying risks of a multi-front war of attrition and a total collapse of global energy markets.
