“Hezbollah’s firing at Mount Dov constitutes a serious violation of the ceasefire, and Israel will respond forcefully. We are determined to continue enforcing the ceasefire, and to respond to any violation by Hezbollah — a minor one will be treated like a major one.”

Since the October 25th Israeli attack on an Iranian nuclear research facility in Parchin, how significant is the damage done to the Islamic Republic’s ability to strike out against Israel? Does the Islamic Republic want to engage with the state of Israel and perhaps her allies in a nuclear war? How damaged has the nuclear research facility become? How long will it take them to replicate it?


Will it continue to simply use its terror proxies “until the last Arab”?


We know that Iran had attempted to assassinate President-elect Donald Trump, Ambassador John Bolton, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, and Former Assistant Secretary of State Brian Hook, as well as Masih Alinejad. Since the recent confirmation that three Uzbek nationals allegedly hired by Iran murdered Rabbi Tzvi Kogan, an Israeli Chabad Rabbi, in the UAE, is Iran simply returning to its policy of “murder for hire?”

About this speaker: Behnam Ben Taleblu is a senior fellow at FDD, where he focuses on Iranian security and political issues. Behnam previously served as a research fellow and senior Iran analyst at FDD. Before his time at FDD, Behnam worked on non-proliferation issues at an arms control think-tank in Washington. Leveraging his subject-matter expertise and native Farsi skills, Behnam has closely tracked a wide range of Iran-related topics, including nuclear non-proliferation, ballistic missiles, sanctions, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, the foreign and security policy of the Islamic Republic, and internal Iranian politics. Frequently called upon to brief journalists, congressional staff, and other Washington audiences, Behnam has also testified before the U.S. Congress and Canadian Parliament.

His analysis has been quoted in The Washington Post, The Wall Street Journal, Reuters, Fox News, The Associated Press, and Agence France-Presse, among others.

SPECIAL WEBINAR: Navigating through the Syrian Complexity

With Hazem Alghabra

Date: Thursday, December 5, 2024

Time: 12 noon

The Syrian situation is not as facile as many in the United States would like to believe. Although the evolution of the rebel movement began with a few innocent children writing on the wall in the beginning of the Arab Spring of 2011, that “Assad must go”, by now elements of ISIS, Al Qaeda and the HDS, which is on the US list of terrorist organizations, have joined in with the Sunni rebels. We know that on one side is Iranian and Russian backed Bashar Assad. Who is actually the good guy here, or are there none?

Here to help walk us through this situation is Hazem Alghabra.

About Our Speaker: Hazem Alghabra, born in Damascus Syria, is the founder and president of Frontiers Consultants, a Washington DC-based consultancy firm that provides public relations and crisis management solutions with a focus on the Middle East and the United States. Prior to starting his firm, Alghabra held multiple positions with the U.S. Department of State including senior advisor for public affairs at the Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs. Alghabra provides daily insight and analysis as a commentator on a vast array of television stations including i24, Keshet, Alarabyia, Sky News, BBC, and Alsharq-Bloomberg.
