About this episode

The episode discusses the aftermath of the '12 day war' and its implications on global politics, particularly focusing on Iran and South Africa.

The so-called "12 day war" is over, Iran’s nuclear sites are smoking craters, and the world shrugs as World War 3 simply doesn't happen - again. This week, Kanthan and Jonathan break down how the US pulled off a once-unthinkable strike, and ask whether Netanyahu's legal headaches are a national security threat. Back in South Africa, the ANC crosses another DA red line (we’ve lost count), and the DA responds with its usual mix of stern social media rebukes and strategic paralysis.
