Episode 52 Who blinks first? Iran's Asymmetric Warfare Against Israel-US Conventional Strategy

About this episode

The episode discusses Iran's asymmetric warfare tactics in response to attacks from the United States and Israel.

India Rising: Strategic Affairs Conversations with Mohal and Kishor @mohaljoshi @veggiediplomat The United States and Israel have attacked Iran and eliminated Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, thinking that Iran will fold much like Venezuela. Iran, on the contrary, has upped the ante and caused widespread destruction to not just the United States and Israel but to all US allies in the region. This asymmetric warfare approach by Iran seems to be acting like a perfect foil to the conventional war strategy adopted by Israel and the United States.
