About the episode
Mojtaba Khomeini has been selected as Iran's new Supreme Leader following his father's death, with reports indicating he represents an even more hardline stance than the previous generation of ayatollahs. Former US National Security Adviser John Bolton discusses the implications of this leadership transition, arguing that the younger generation of Iranian religious leaders are more extreme and that Mojtaba has strong backing from the Revolutionary Guard. The analysis covers potential US strategies for regime change in Iran, the risk of global conflict escalation, and the role of opposition forces within the country.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
