Andrew Cuomo explores the limitations of military power in resolving the nuclear standoff with Iran, emphasizing that negotiated diplomacy remains the only viable path to a lasting solution. Expert Joe Cirincione argues that conventional strikes cannot fully eliminate a nuclear program hidden in deep fortifications, nor can they neutralize Iran's asymmetric warfare capabilities, such as the use of inexpensive drones and missiles to block the Strait of Hormuz. The discussion highlights a significant shift in the nature of modern combat where high-tech militaries struggle against low-cost, decentralized technology that can strangle the global economy by disrupting oil supplies.
