Dye, Golburgh & Rosenberg | Operation Epic Fury: Iran’s tipping point & what’s really happening #62
from TWO TAPS AND FRIENDS · host Daniel Rosenberg
In this candid roundtable, host Daniel Rosenberg is joined by Attorney Michael Dye and Attorney Lloyd Golburgh to unpack the unfolding U.S.-Israel operation against Iran's leadership and IRGC infrastructure. From precision strikes on key figures to the Strait of Hormuz oil realities, ideological entrenchment, potential IRGC fractures, and why isolationism isn't viable, they explore the human cost, geopolitical chess moves, domestic threats, media hypocrisy, and what true regime change might require. No pom-poms, no panic—just grounded analysis on a pivotal moment that could reshape the Middle East and beyond. ⏰ Timestamps ⏰ 00:00 🎬 Teaser 1:36 🎤 Guest Intros: Daniel Rosenberg with Attorneys Michael Dye & Lloyd Golburgh 2:15 🛡️ Operation Update: Taking Out the Ayatollah and IRGC Targets 3:23 🤔 Is the New Leadership Already Compromised?
