"No, we're not thinking about nuclear weapons."

"We have no intention of obtaining these weapons at all."

"Iran doesn't have nukes, isn't building nukes, and hasn't made the decision to build nukes."

"Iran doesn't have a bomb, and doesn't appear to be trying to make a bomb."

"They are definitely going for a nuclear weapon there is no question."

"They can have [a nuclear weapon], you know, in a matter of months, I would say."

Iran could produce a nuclear weapon "within a few months, less than a year."

"Current and former U.S. officials say they see little sign, at least so far, of a mass popular uprising in Iran or of significant fissures within the government or security forces that will result in a new regime."

"There is an 11% chance that the Iranian government will lose power before 2027."

"There is an 8.9% chance that the Iranian regime will collapse and Reza Pahlavi will become head of state before January 1, 2027."

"There is an 19% chance that the Iranian regime will fall before 2027."

"Regime change is possible but unlikely."

"In any case, the Islamic Republic faces a significant challenge, and its long-term survival is not assured."

"Regime collapse or irreversible degradation is more likely than regime survival (65% likelihood)."

“The regime cannot continue that long.”

"If Trump sees it through, and I think he will, I think they're [going to] fall pretty soon, in two, three, four weeks."

"I think the regime will collapse before Iranian New Year (Nowruz), which is March 20th."

Will the Islamic Republic of Iran Experience Regime Collapse by 2027?

Around 1,500 death-row inmates in Unit 2 of Ghezel Hesar Prison near Tehran continued a hunger strike into its 15th consecutive day on July 27, 2026, protesting executions linked to drug-related charges. Prison authorities transferred roughly 140 non-death-row prisoners out of the unit on July 26 to isolate the strikers.

The hunger strike at Ghezel Hesar began July 13 after six prisoners sentenced on drug charges were moved to solitary confinement. Some inmates have sewn their lips shut in protest, and prison authorities have denied striking prisoners access to medical care.

Two men, Amirhossein Safari and Abolfazl Sepahi, were executed on July 28 in Isfahan in connection with the Alikhani Square case, stemming from clashes during January 2026 protests.
