Ray McGovern: The Way a Long Iran War Destroys Israel and the Entire GCC

Analysis of escalating US-Iran tensions and the Middle East crisis. The discussion examines claims that US foreign policy is increasingly shaped by Israeli interests rather than American priorities, with criticism of administration officials for enabling conflict. Key topics include intelligence officials resigning in protest over the Iran war, growing domestic backlash from conservative voices, and deepening NATO divisions as European allies refuse offensive involvement. The conversation explores the shifting global order, with Russia and China strengthening ties with Iran, and warns of dangerous nuclear escalation risks. It also addresses how the Middle East conflict impacts the Ukraine war through competition for weapons supplies, while expressing cautious hope for diplomatic off-ramps and a new regional security architecture that prioritizes peace and sovereignty over perpetual war and expansionist agendas.
