Why Now? Admiral Stavridis on U.S. Strike on Iran

Why Now? Admiral Stavridis on U.S. Strike on Iran

The US attacked Iran - now on Day 3 of the deadly conflict, Michael turns to one of the nation’s most experienced military leaders for clarity. Retired 4-star Admiral James Stavridis — former Supreme Allied Commander of NATO — breaks down why the strike happened now, what the true objective may be (regime change? nuclear deterrence? weakening Iran’s proxies?), and whether Iran is stronger than we’ve been led to believe. They discuss the strategic importance of the Strait of Hormuz, the role of Russia and China, how NATO allies are reacting, and whether the Iranian people could ultimately determine the outcome. Then, callers weigh in — raising constitutional concerns about congressional authorization, debating President Trump’s leadership, and questioning whether America has a clear endgame. Is this the start of regime collapse — or another prolonged Middle East conflict? Original air date 2 March 2026. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
