Dr. Muhannad Ayyash was born and raised in Silwan, Al-Quds, before immigrating to Canada where he is a Professor of Sociology at Mount Royal University. He is also a policy analyst at Al-Shabaka: The Palestinian Policy Network. He is the author of Lordship and Liberation in Palestine-Israel (Columbia University Press, 2025) and A Hermeneutics of Violence (University of Toronto Press, 2019), has co-edited two books, and is the author of over twenty journal articles and book chapters, and over fifty commentaries and opinion pieces.

Amid the US-Israel war on Iran, divided visions of regime change threaten to prolong instability across the region, argues Muhannad Ayyash.
