Iran’s Regime Is On The Edge: What Happens If It Collapses?

Iran’s leadership is under intense pressure as nationwide protests spread across the country, driven by deep economic strain, political frustration, and anger toward Iran’s Islamic theocracy. Demonstrations that began in December have grown into one of the most serious challenges to the regime in decades, with hundreds reportedly killed amid a sweeping government crackdown. Robert Harward, former U.S. Navy SEAL vice admiral and a member of the Iran Policy Project at the Jewish Institute for National Security of America, joins the Rundown to discuss whether this unrest could mark an end for the regime, and what may come next.
