What Comes Next: After The Iran Strike
from Beerocracy!® · host Emily Gross
After President Trump ordered airstrikes on three key sites in Iran—targeting critical parts of Iran’s nuclear infrastructure—the world is once again on edge. The strikes marked a sharp escalation, dividing the public - even Trump's own base. I'm joined by William Wechsler, Senior Director of the Rafik Hariri Center and Middle East Programs at the Atlantic Council, to break down the motivations behind the strikes, the pros and cons of this move, and what comes next. It's a lively discussion on why this felt right to some and like a dangerous escalation to others. Plus, we look ahead to the potential outcomes of the upcoming negotiations. It's a discussion you don't want to miss.
