Bruce Shapiro's USA: Will Trump follow through on his latest Iran threat?

from Late Night Live - Separate stories podcast · host Australian Broadcasting Corporation

US President Donald Trump has published an expletive-laden post on social media in which he threatened to destroy Iran's power plants and bridges if the country failed to meet his Tuesday (USA ET) deadline to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. If actioned, the destruction of civilian infrastructure could constitute war crimes. Will the President follow through, or back out again? Guest: Bruce Shapiro, Executive Director of the Global Centre for Journalism and Trauma, Contributing Editor at The Nation
