Awakening from nightmare: Iran’s future beyond the Islamic Republic | Eye for Iran | EP 65 |
Update: 2025-08-22
Description
Stanford professor and historian Abbas Milani says the Islamic Republic's real opposition is not abroad but inside the country — women walking unveiled, teachers refusing propaganda, and artists reimagining history. Calling the Islamic Republic a “cancer” and a “totalitarian nightmare,” Milani insists Iran’s resilience points to a brighter future as people have woken from that nightmare.
“Iranian society is more represented by intellectuals who used to be religious and now go and kiss the feet of a Baha’i and say, I’m sorry for everything we have done to you,” Milani said. “That’s the future of Iran. Those women are the future of Iran. They are the opposition to this regime.”
