Show Notes

Iranian security forces have escalated from pellet guns to live ammunition during the ongoing protests across the country, drastically increasing deaths that could be as high as over 10-thousand casualties. The situation for protesters seemed to shift after authorities imposed internet blackouts and cut off communication outside of the country. The protests have been fueled by anger over economic hardship, with rising prices and inflation but has expanded into a call for the end of Ayatollah Khomeini's rule and the return of exiled Crown Prince Reva Pahlavi who supports a secular-democracy.


FOX’s Eben Brown speaks with Khosro Isfahani, Senior Research Analyst at the National Union for Democracy in Iran (NUFDI), who says the fall of this regime is just a matter of time, and explains why the exiled Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi receives so much support.
