From #Palestine and Bosnia to #SouthAfrica and #Venezuela, this is a shared struggle against imperial domination, and a blueprint for economic sovereignty forged in defiance of a brutal hegemon.

In this episode of Al Mayadeen’s Demystifying Iran, Seyed Mohammad Marandi, Professor of English Literature and Orientalism at the University of Tehran, addresses a critical question: Why did Iran not launch a large-scale military intervention to save Assad in 2024? The answer, according to Seyed Marandi, lies in the principles guiding Iran’s involvement from the start: intervention was conditional on a formal request from the recognized state and the demonstrable will of the local army and population to resist. When neither condition was met, Iran limited its role to providing intelligence and advisory support, underscoring a strategic consistency rather than pursuing occupation.

In this episode of Al Mayadeen’s Demystifying Iran, Seyed Mohammad Marandi, Professor of English Literature and Orientalism at the University of Tehran, examines the 2011 uprising in Syria.
