Whether you’re a seasoned Iran watcher or just starting to explore the topic, understanding the Islamic Republic requires going back to the events that led to the 1979 Islamic Revolution. And to do that we need to revisit 1953, the year a coup overthrew Iran’s Prime Minister, Mohammad Mossadegh. If you think you already know this story, think again.
USAID was rotten, but Trump needs the ‘soft power’ of foreign aid done right

2 months ago | fdd.org | Mark Dubowitz |Ben Cohen

By abruptly shuttering the US Agency for International Development (USAID) only two weeks after returning to Washington, President Trump is signaling that he will bring accountability and efficiency to foreign aid. In an ideal world, USAID strengthens US influence through soft power.

Jan 10, 2025 | fdd.org | Krystal Bermudez |Mark Dubowitz |Elaine Dezenski

When people think of South Africa, they likely think of Nelson Mandela’s legacy of equality and democracy. But today the country is veering dangerously off course. Three decades of African National Congress rule have delivered corruption, economic collapse and an alarming alignment with America’s enemies—China, Russia, Iran and even Hamas.

Israel needs to dismantle Khamenei's regime

Nov 26, 2024 | jpost.com | Mark Dubowitz |Jacob Nagel

Israel must redefine its mission as not just surviving Khamenei’s threats but neutralizing their source. Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei has a clear mission: destroy Israel by 2040. The supreme leader has shown that Israel’s pursuit of deterrence can only delay his aggression, not stop it.
