Dear MEPIN Readers,
Today, I joined Calev Ben-David on ILTV’s Security Briefing, alongside my colleague Avraham Levine of the Alma Center for Research and Education.
While much attention has focused on the extraordinary military actions unfolding, we examined the critical strategic questions that follow:
- What are the objectives for the day after?
- What truly motivated the President’s decision to strike Iran on Saturday?
- Why did circumstances dictate that American and Israeli action could not be delayed?
- And why should the United States and its allies support separatists and protest movements, as Israel targets the Iranian regime’s repressive security arms — the IRGC and the Basij militia?
I invite you to watch the full discussion for an in-depth analysis of these developments — including an explanation of what the War Powers Act actually requires of the President.
Please be on the lookout for my upcoming interview with Iran International, the leading opposition media outlet reaching more than 30 million Iranians inside Iran. —Eric
