Inside JSOC’s Most Dangerous Mission Ever | EYES ON GEOPOLITICS

Inside JSOC’s Most Dangerous Mission Ever | EYES ON GEOPOLITICS

Jack Murphy joins us to break down his new High Side investigation into JSOC’s planned mission to recover highly enriched uranium from Iran, a raid some insiders compared to “Eagle Claw 2.0.” He explains why the operation would have required far more than a small special operations team, the risks of fighting in a CBRN environment, and why the mission may have been too dangerous to greenlight.
