Behnam Ben Taleblu REC (1)

The Iranian regime is massacring thousands of its citizens in the street. President Trump says “help is on the way."

What form might that help take, and how would any U.S. intervention change the situation on the ground and the region?

To answer these questions and more, No Labels will be talking to Behnam Ben Taleblu, senior director of the Iran Program at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, on Friday, January 16, 2026, at 1:00 PM ET. We are living in a historic moment and this is a perspective you will not want to miss.

Ben Taleblu spoke to the No Labels community last year in the wake of the strikes on the Iranian nuclear program and is one of America’s most astute students of Iranian history and the Islamic theocracy that has been in power since 1979. He has spent more than a decade analyzing Iranian security and political dynamics, with a focus on the regime’s internal pressure points, its approach to repression, and how unrest inside Iran can reshape the region and the world.

To learn more about the unfolding situation in Iran and what to watch in the days ahead, join us on Friday.
