Benjamin Netanyahu has become the new figure targeted by the "Who must go?" meme in the Middle East, replacing Bashar Assad and Ayatollah Khamenei as the individual whom a significant portion of the region desires to see removed or eliminated.
On December 15, 2025, a significant increase in US Air Force activity was observed in the Middle East, with a scale not seen in recent times, as a ceasefire deadline approaches.
As of today, there are no reported talks taking place despite previous indications to the contrary. The ceasefire between parties involved in the Iranian revolution and US military operations is set to expire tomorrow.
On Tuesday morning, Iran's Mizan News Agency reported that Amir-Ali Mirzaefari, a detained protester from the Iranian National Revolution, was executed. Mirzaefari was sentenced to death for charges including setting fire to the Jameh Mosque of Qaleh and leadership of the protests.
J.D. Vance, the U.S. Vice President, is expected to travel to Islamabad by Tuesday morning for talks with Iran to potentially end the ongoing conflict, according to Axios sources. The two-week ceasefire deadline is set to expire on Tuesday, with President Donald Trump threatening new airstrikes if no agreement is reached by Wednesday sunset Washington time.
Regardless of how you feel about him, Benjamin Netanyahu is the new "Who must go?" meme in the Middle East. He of course replaces Bashar Assad and Khamenei Sr who used to hold this title. 2/3 of the world furiously wants him gone/dead, and he's just there no matter what.
