Join us for a special online briefing with Dr. Thamar Eilam Gindin, a leading Iran specialist from The Ezri Center for Iran and Persian Gulf Studies at the University of Haifa.
From the 12-day war that reshaped the region to the Lion & Sun Protests and the historic massacre of December 2025, and in light of President Trump’s declaration that he would stand by his promise to the Iranian people — Iran stands at a pivotal historical moment.
As events continue to unfold in real time, this lecture will examine which pillars of the regime have survived, what new forces are rising, the possible paths ahead, and the powerful mythological symbols – including the Lion and Sun – that are fueling the revolutionary imagination.
This timely briefing will provide essential context for understanding the dramatic shifts taking place in Iran and their far-reaching implications for the Middle East and beyond.
