Cole BucyGUEST
And the line you hear from these hawks is, quote, finish the job.
Cole BucyGUEST
They want President Trump to get out of this neutral position and finish toppling the Islamic Republic.
Cole BucyGUEST
The theory they have is one more good push, another round of military airstrikes on Iran, maybe some combination of other creative escalatory things.
Cole BucyGUEST
Maybe they're going to arm some opposition that's been talked of in the past.
Cole BucyGUEST
probably looking at more decapitation strikes, something where if the United States or Israel have been able to locate the new supreme leader, the son of the former supreme leader, Majdaba Khamenei, if they know where he is, he's been in hiding, they're able to figure out where he's secretly hiding.
Cole BucyGUEST
Maybe they think killing him will dislodge the regime or kick off some process that brings down the Islamic Republic in some fashion.
Cole BucyGUEST
I'm skeptical, but they seem to think it's worth a try.
Cole BucyGUEST
given they don't have any better options.
Lyle Jeremy RubinHOST
So that's key distinction.
Lyle Jeremy RubinHOST
But yeah, like that is such a funny pivot to go from like, We think counterterrorism is everything that the Islamic Republic has has been doing, you know, for decades.
Lyle Jeremy RubinHOST
Like this is what we want to do in our country.
Lyle Jeremy RubinHOST
Just like kill, you know, queer people, trans people, leftists.
Aaron David MillerHOST
And I think it's also fair to say, eight months in, that there are probably no Hollywood endings here.
Aaron David MillerHOST
That no matter how consequential this round has been between the U.S. and the Islamic Republic, it constitutes and reflects perhaps a round and a half century struggle between various Republican and Democratic administrations and the Islamic Republic.
Aaron David MillerHOST
So where are we? And where are we going.
Aaron David MillerHOST
Suzanne and Karim need no introductions.
Karim SadjadpourGUEST
Sure, it's great to be with you, Aaron and Suzanne.
Karim SadjadpourGUEST
So let me make a macro observation and then a more micro observation.
Karim SadjadpourGUEST
The macro observation is that 2026 has been an incredibly eventful year for the Islamic Republic.
Karim SadjadpourGUEST
In January of this year, they faced one of the largest popular uprisings since 1979.
Clayton SmithHOST
Yasmin received a PhD in cultural, literary, and linguistic studies from the University of Miami.
Clayton SmithHOST
Her scholarly work focuses on Iran's woman life freedom movement and the digital art and activism it produced in defiance of the Islamic Republic.
Clayton SmithHOST
Yasmin began her acting career in Tehran's theater scene, appearing in a number of different productions.
Clayton SmithHOST
However, since moving to the United States, she's shifted her focus to film and television and is currently working on a neo-noir spy thriller called Vetro.
Michael MedvedHOST
And seven out of ten want to see prioritizing the end of the military conflict with Iran, presumably with an American victory after everything we have committed thus far.
Michael MedvedHOST
the money and the effort and the lives that we have committed to this battle, which is approaching nine months with the nation of Iran, the Islamic Republic, so-called.
Michael MedvedHOST
Then when it gets down to other priorities, four out of ten people people in the public who are potential voters say they want the new Congress to make investigating the Trump administration a high priority.
Michael MedvedHOST
And how about for people who want Congress to prioritize supporting President Trump's agenda, which he talks about a lot on the campaign trail, two out of ten want Congress to prioritize supporting the Republican president's agenda.
speaker_17SOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
We left Iran.
speaker_17SOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
We left Islamic Republic for exactly this reason, because radical terrorist Muslims took over the country and are literally killing, raping, torturing, and executing innocent people right now as we speak for the past 47 years.
speaker_17SOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
And I thought by voting Democrat, liberals every single year, every single time there was an election, that meant we are going to make America, keep America great.
speaker_17SOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
We're going to definitely not negotiate with terrorism.

Jennifer LoewensteinGUEST
If you're going to continue to do this to us, we're going to make life as difficult as humanly possible for everyone supporting this war.
Jennifer LoewensteinGUEST
And, you know, there are lots of people who are cheering Iran on, not because they support the Islamic Republic, but because they're so fed up with American arrogance and this need to be the number one power on the planet.
Jennifer LoewensteinGUEST
So I don't see anything good coming of anything.
Jennifer LoewensteinGUEST
Hezbollah and the popular mobilization forces and the Houthis have all said that they would join in with Iran if there's another round.
Tovah LazaroffGUEST
Look, you're going to fall into two camps, right? One camp says that Netanyahu, while October 7th might have happened, Netanyahu, as you rightly pointed out, has had massive military successes.
Tovah LazaroffGUEST
And if we want to see the security of this country, if we want to totally topple NATO, you know, the Islamic Republic in Iran, etc., then you can only vote Netanyahu.
Tovah LazaroffGUEST
And no matter what, they're always going to support him.
Tovah LazaroffGUEST
There's a second camp, and that camp says, absolutely not.
NancyHOST
And in 2024, Israel launched pre-dawn airstrikes against military targets.
NancyHOST
In Iran, in retaliation for a barrage of ballistic missiles, the Islamic Republic fired on Israel on October 1st.
NancyHOST
It was the first time Israel's military had openly attacked Iran.
MarkHOST
And now the horoscopes.
Russell JohnsonHOST
Hello, pastor.
Russell JohnsonHOST
During today's service, you talked about elimination of the leader of the demonic Islamic Republic regime in Iran and how Iranians are turning to Jesus.
Russell JohnsonHOST
I wanted to let you know you have one at your church.
Russell JohnsonHOST
I'm an Iranian who is brought to Jesus when Charlie got killed.
