30:23Now PlayingThe Middle East is rapidly transforming before our very eyes. It seems that every day there is a new major development that would have been impossible to predict just five years ago. While conventional wisdom argued that any attack on Iran by the USA would result in U.S. and Israeli isolation from Arab countries in the region, the opposite has become the reality.
In this episode of the Parliament, Darion invites back the Vice President of National Security at The Heritage Foundation, Victoria Coates, to further explore this new regional landscape and where it seems to be headed.
Will Israel and Lebanon actually achieve peace, and what role does Jordan play in that? Are the gulf countries ready to fully join the fight against Iran? Is Israel becoming more integrated in the region in spite of what the news may lead you to believe?
Listen in to hear the answers to these questions!
