Col. Jacques Baud: U.S. Hits Nuclear Plant, Iran Strikes Across the Gulf
About this episode
This episode explores the complex geopolitics of the Middle East through an interview with Col. Jacques Baud, focusing on escalating tensions involving the US, Israel, Iran, Yemen, and GCC nations.
Explore the complex geopolitics of the Middle East! This interview breaks down escalating tensions involving the US, Israel, Iran, Yemen, and GCC nations. Discover why Western "black-and-white" strategies fail in a region defined by nuanced, triangular relationships. We analyze Iran and Yemen's "controlled escalation" to achieve objectives without all-out war, and how Gulf states navigate this fragile balance. Learn why external powers struggle to grasp the Middle East's unique diplomatic logic, and why current US policies lack a clear rationale. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
