Iran Is Facing The Final Warning

from The Missing Piece [International] Hosted by The Missing Piece

Tensions are at a breaking point. President Trump is weighing a military strike on Iran, with options on the table that range from limited attacks to a full-scale campaign . But behind the scenes, his own generals are pushing back. We’re learning that the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Dan Caine, has personally warned the White House that an attack could be far more dangerous than anticipated—pointing to depleted munitions, the risk of a prolonged conflict, and the threat to American troops . So, is the U.S. heading toward war? And will Trump listen to his top advisors or pull the trigger? Today, we break down the military standoff with Iran and the last-ditch diplomatic talks in Geneva that could decide it all. Guest info: Professor Jamsheed Choksy is a Distinguished Professor, former Chair of the Department of Near Eastern Languages and Cultures, former Chair of the Department of Central Eurasian Studies, and current Director of the Inner Asian and Uralic National Resource Center (US Title VI) at Indiana University - Bloomington. In 2008, he was nominated by President George W. Bush to the National Council on the Humanities and served as a member of the council until 2019.
