- Alex Winston, JPost news editor breaks down Iran's February 11 Islamic Revolution anniversary. According to his article, this is a highly choreographed event, marking the 1979 fall of the Shah and the rise of the Islamic Republic. This year, the regime is doubling down on its display of strength, with extensive rallies, military showcases, and media coverage, all designed to project legitimacy. However, amidst growing public dissatisfaction and months of anti-regime protests, the government has reportedly pressured families of detained protesters to attend, underscoring the fragile nature of the regime's support. Supreme Leader Khamenei frames the event as a symbol of Iran's "power and dignity," but with the regime's legitimacy increasingly questioned, this could be the last time the anniversary is celebrated as a national holiday.
