Where is Iran’s national uprising headed?

As Iran faces a new wave of unrest amid violent crackdowns and information blackouts, CivilNet sits down with Dr. Ervand Abrahamian, Distinguished Professor Emeritus at the City University of New York and a leading historian of modern Iran. He places the current moment in historical context, contrasting it with the 1979 Islamic Revolution, and explores how demands for rights domestically are colliding with external pressures. Professor Abrahamian questions whether American and Israeli ambitions against Tehran could lead to state disintegration, with consequences reaching far beyond Iran’s borders.
