Feedback Friday: Should the U.S. withdraw from the war in Iran, or can a deal be reached?

from Closer Look with Rose Scott · host WABE

The current war against Iran started when the U.S. and Israel launched coordinated airstrikes against targeted military and government regions in Iran. To which, part of Iran's retaliation included blocking the Strait of Hormuz. In February, President Donald Trump said the war in Iran would be swift, and on several occasions, the administration has declared the war a success. But months later, the war persists and America’s gas prices have risen to an average over $4. It’s a conflict that goes back decades – and at one point, the United States and Iran were even allies. On today’s Feedback Friday edition of “Closer Look with Rose Scott,” we ask our listeners: Should the U.S. withdraw from the war in Iran or is there a solution that could end it? We’re joined by experts from Georgia Tech and Emory University to discuss the United States war strategy and challenges within international laws of armed conflict. We also look back on the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty of 1968 and examine its success as to the promise of total global disarmament.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
