CC: Israel & Iran’s Day of Reckoning

Thomas and Aimen are back together again with an emergency episode to discuss the extraordinary events that took place over the weekend: Israel’s massive wave of attacks throughout Iran - and Iran's subsequent response. Aimen is back with us to detail the implications of the military action, explaining from his sources on the inside just how strategic Israel were in their plans for degrading Iran’s nuclear capabilities and killing their army and intelligence leaders. We get into the geopolitical reactions from the Gulf states to the US, and the potential for regime change in Iran. But how effective will ‘Operation Rising Lion’ be in the long run of disrupting Iran's nuclear program? And what will Iran's counterattacks hold in the coming days? Will there be a new power in Iran by the end of this year? To listen to more bonus episodes like this one, subscribe to the Conflicted Community.
