No grand strategy on Iran, just vibes
About this episode
The episode discusses the complexities of US-Iran relations and the implications for Israel amidst changing sentiments in the US.
In Washington people are talking about an off-ramp, but if the Iranian regime doesn't surrender, can the US really claim any kind of victory? And as sentiment in the US turns against Israel, could this war ultimately leave Israel more rather than less fragile? Meanwhile President Trump seems to be playing Marco Rubio and JD Vance off against one another.
