Mideastream: Resistance, betrayal, realignment

The MidEaStream examines how Zionist Israel's calculated assault on Iran backfired into a moment of unexpected national cohesion.

What was meant to shatter the Islamic Republic only strengthened it, uniting critics and loyalists under one banner of defiance and survival. From missiles to messaging, Iran didn’t just endure — it redefined the battlefield. Meanwhile, recent reports reveal that Syria and Zionist Israel are engaged in direct, daily talks aiming toward a historic peace agreement, with discussions of Israeli entity withdrawal from parts of the occupied Golan Heights. At the center of this shift is Abu Mohammad al-Jolani, a former Daesh commander turned de facto Syrian leader, whose openness to normalization with Zionist Israel marks a profound betrayal of Syrian sovereignty and the Palestinian cause.
