Sam Torabi: Iran draws its strength from society itself

 






Al Mayadeen English  25 January 2026

In The Proximate Aspect, Iranian researcher specializing in strategic affairs and international relations, Sam Torabi, challenges the long-standing assumption that Iran can be destabilized from the outside, arguing that the Islamic Republic draws its strength from society itself, a reality its adversaries consistently fail to grasp.


Torabi also addresses whether US intelligence agencies and Mossad miscalculated their ability to spark a color revolution in Iran, pointing instead to a state that has repeatedly turned pressure into cohesion.


He also warns about foreign-funded networks operating inside Iran, describing their role in manufacturing chaos as more destructive than ISIS.


"What is the cause of Iran's economic stagnation? Would surrendering to the West save Iran economically?" are questions that are answered throughout the episode.
