This is a conversation with Zineb Riboua, a Middle East expert and a research fellow at the Hudson Institute’s Center for Peace and Security in the Middle East - about the ongoing conflict between Israel and Iran. We talk about what are really the Israeli goals with this operation, whether they can succeed in completely destroying Iranian nuclear weapons ambitions or how much damage they already did.
About what has been the role of the Trump administration and whether Trump was in on this from the start or if he’s now just trying to take credit - whether Israel is really pursuing a regime change and how likely that is or how vulnerable is Iran to a domestic coup, revolution and what the most likely scenarios are. And about much, much more.
