'Intelligence FAILURE!' Professor Jiang vs Andrew Bustamante On Iran War

Has the conflict between the United States and Iran really come to an end, or is this just the beginning of a new phase? Following US strikes on Iranian targets and renewed tensions over the Strait of Hormuz, questions remain over whether the ceasefire will hold and what comes next for the Middle East. Earlier in the conflict, two expert guests made bold predictions about how the war would unfold - one drawing on years of intelligence experience, the other using game theory and predictive modelling. Now they return to assess how their forecasts held up, examine the consequences of the fighting, and discuss the risks of further escalation. Piers Morgan is joined by former CIA covert officer, known as the Everyday Spy, Andrew Bustamante, and game theorist known as 'Professor Jiang', Jiang Xueqin, to debate.
