Listen "The Threat Of An Israel-Iran War | J Street Policy Center Briefing"
Episode Synopsis
This past weekend saw an unprecedented retaliatory strike by Iran against Israel. It came following Israel’s reported bombing of the Iranian consulate in Damascus, which killed over a dozen people including several senior military leaders.
With the world urging restraint as the Israeli government vows to respond, more disturbing still is the risk that conflict slides toward all-out war with Iran. It would be a catastrophic conflict for the US, the region and far beyond.
To discuss the risk level, the Biden Administration’s calculations, and how the next weeks and months may play out, J Street was joined by renowned experts Eran Etzion, a former Israeli diplomat and security strategist, Dr. Naysan Rafati, Iran Senior Analyst with the International Crisis Group, and Barbara Slavin, a Distinguished Fellow with the Stimson Center and lecturer in international affairs at George Washington University. J Street Policy Director Dr. Debra Shushan moderates.
