The Israel-Iran war, regional tensions are peaking — with Israeli strikes on Iran’s IRGC leadership, stalled U.S.-Iran nuclear talks, and rising fears of escalation. In this episode of Unraveled, Marvi Sirmed speaks with Dr. Kamran Bokhari (Senior Director, New Lines Institute) to unpack the evolving dynamics: Why did Israel strike just before critical U.S.-Iran talks? What is Israel’s real endgame — and does it align with American interests? Is “regime change” in Iran even possible — or is the regime evolving internally? How is the power struggle between Iran’s IRGC and Artesh shaping the country’s future? What are President Trump’s limited options now — and can diplomacy still prevail? Dr. Bokhari also offers deep insights into Iran’s internal power shifts, the strategic calculations of the U.S. and Israel, and what might come next in this volatile conflict. Watch the full analysis now — and stay tuned for continuing updates on the Israel-Iran crisis.
