YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Norman Roule, a former senior CIA official, says Iran's comments on having no plans to talk about a nuclear deal with the U.S. are not true because their defenses are destroyed.

NewsNation correspondent-at-large Geraldo Rivera says the conflicting views on the damage done to Iran's nuclear facilities is disappointing because the mission was successful either way.

Former Trump adviser Mick Mulvaney says the degree of damage to Iran's nuclear facilities doesn't make much of a difference because Iran will be coming to the negotiating table with the U.S. He says Iran is out of the nuclear weapon picture for the foreseeable future.
