A historic reset is unfolding in 2026—and the stakes couldn’t be higher. In this powerful episode of The Staksast, Erick Stakelbeck is joined by ambassador Yechiel Leiter, Israel’s Ambassador to the United States, for a wide-ranging, no-spin breakdown of what’s next for Israel, America, and the Middle East as massive protests spread across Iran.

 

Ambassador Leiter explains why the Iranian people—92 million strong—are rising up after decades under the boot of the mullahs, a regime that has starved its own citizens of basic necessities while funneling billions to terror proxies worldwide. If the ayatollahs fall, Leiter says, the ripple effects could be seismic—opening the door to a new era of regional peace… and maybe even something he calls the “Cyrus Accords.”
