In December 2025, Shirin Saeidi was dismissed from her management position at the University of Arkansas Center for Middle Eastern Studies due to her political views regarding the [[Islamic Republic of Iran]] and support for [[Ali Khamenei|Imam Khamenei]] and criticism of [[Israel]], and her page on the X network was also blocked. This decision was made following the formation of a public campaign against her political positions.
