YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

The U.S.-Israel attack on Iran was "not the limited strike that was considered by the president or his aides, nor was this even limited to Iran's nuclear or missile program," PBS News' Nick Schifrin says. It's "a war to overthrow the Iranian regime — and not quick," he added; President Donald Trump said Saturday the mission could take days or weeks.

"There's no guarantee of success, and there's no knowing what will happen after that," Schifrin said. He takes a closer look at what we know and what's next.
