We discuss whether Iran’s recent strikes and shifting strategy reveal deeper divisions inside the Iranian leadership. Dr Al-Arian also examines the consequences of Iran targeting Gulf states such as Qatar, the UAE, Bahrain and Kuwait, and whether these moves risk turning regional public opinion against Tehran. The conversation explores whether Iran is preparing for a long war of attrition, the possibility of disruptions to global energy and shipping routes, and how these developments could reshape alliances between the Gulf, the United States, and Israel. Who is really winning this conflict, and what might the next phase of the war look like for the region and the world?
