Today's Poll Question: Which War Ends First, Russia-Ukraine or US/Israel-Iran?
from The Smerconish Podcast · host Michael Smerconish
Today's Poll Question at Smerconish.com: Which war ends first — Russia/Ukraine or U.S./Israel versus Iran? Michael examines two global conflicts that suddenly appear to be moving in opposite directions. Vladimir Putin is hinting that the Russia-Ukraine war could be “coming to an end,” even as ceasefire violations continue and battlefield clashes intensify. Meanwhile, tensions between the U.S., Israel, and Iran are escalating rapidly, with failed negotiations, military strikes near the Strait of Hormuz, and fears of broader regional instability driving energy prices higher. Michael also reflects on Admiral James Stavridis’ new geopolitical thriller 2084 and the unsettling future scenarios it imagines. Which conflict is closer to resolution — and which is only becoming more dangerous? Listen here, then vote! Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
