John Mearsheimer: "Iran Holds All the Cards" - The Strategic Defeat of the U.S.

from Glenn Diesen - Greater Eurasia Podcast · host Glenn Diesen

Prof. John Mearsheimer explains why Iran holds all the cards and could devastate the US and the global economy by going up the escalation ladder. A U.S. defeat in Iran, which appears inevitably, will also result in a much wider strategic defeat of the US position in the international system. John J. Mearsheimer is the R. Wendell Harrison Distinguished Service Professor of Political Science at the University of Chicago, where he has taught since 1982.
