Live-streamed on April 16, 2024  Matt Duss, executive vice president at the Center for International Policy, discusses the events of the past weekend involving Iran & Israel. https://twitter.com/mattduss?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor https://www.internationalpolicy.org/ Matt Duss then joins, first parsing through the context for Iran’s retaliation against Israel, including the consistent communication between Iran and the US, and clear intent from Iran to deescalate in the wake of their attack on Israeli military facilities, before touching on the conflict between the genuine threat of rising tensions in the region and the understanding that this response could have been much worse. After briefly touching on the role that this Iran-Israel affair plays in Bibi Netanyahu’s attempt to cling to power (and Israel’s attempt to maintain international legitimacy), they shift to the US perspective, exploring the complete failure of Biden’s approach to Israel’s genocidal and offensive campaign, and what it has done to undermine his ability to reestablish (or even maintain) an international rules-based order.
