Scott Ritter: The US War on Iran Just COLLAPSED – Ceasefire Does the Impossible

A fragile ceasefire is unfolding amid escalating tensions after strikes in Lebanon, exposing deep disagreements between competing peace plans. The discussion highlights how control of the Strait of Hormuz, global energy pressures, and China’s influence are pushing both sides toward negotiations. The interview argues that military escalation has reached its limits, with failed operations and political pressure forcing a shift toward diplomacy. Regional dynamics, including Israel’s position, Gulf states’ roles, and potential economic gains for Iran, shape the stakes. Ultimately, peace is seen as necessary but uncertain, hinging on trust, enforcement, and broader geopolitical compromises. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
