Brink and Mortars

from The Commentary Magazine Podcast Hosted by Commentary Magazine

Our friends Matt Continetti of the WSJ and Jonathan Schanzer of FDD join us today to discuss Saudi Arabia's Houthi bind, the possibility of the entire region being dragged into the conflict, the controversy over the shutdown of Starshield, which limited Ukraine's ability to strike Russia, and the possibility of renewed Israeli/American offensives on Iran. Plus, more election talk, and Matt recommends The Strategist by Eliot A. Cohen.
