Expelled from Iran 25 years ago after being twice arrested for anti-regime activities, Vahid Beheshti has established himself as a leading human rights campaigner, journalist, and anti-regime advocate. Among his accomplishments; visiting Ukraine after Russia's invasion to expose Iran's role in the war and engaging in a 72-day hunger strike in an attempt to have the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corp (IRGC) be proscribed as a terror organization in the UK. His recent speech (under MEF auspices) at the Knesset expressing support for Israel and calling for its direct action targeting Iran’s regime received much attention and galvanized Iranians who hung large “We stand with Israel” banners in Tehran.
Mr. Beheshti will discuss these, his other activities, and will offer predictions about Iran's proxy war in the Middle East and in the West. (The venue will be provided on confirmation) - Business attire required.
- Electronic devices silenced, please.
- Space is limited. |
