Darryl Cooper & Scott Horton speak with Trita Parsi, co-founder of
the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft, about the complex
geopolitical dynamics in the Middle East, focusing on Iran's role in
U.S. foreign policy under the Trump administration. Parsi discusses the
potential for conflict, Trump's unpredictable decision-making, and
Israel's influence on U.S. actions. They explore the implications of
military pressures on Iran and the internal challenges the regime faces.
Parsi calls for a nuanced public discourse to better understand these
intricate relationships and their consequences.
