In the past few days the US has carried out strikes inside of Iran. Iran launched missiles and drones at targets across the Middle East. President Trump threatened to invade Kharg Island and now we’re finally on the verge of a peace deal. Or so we’re told, but let’s be honest, we’ve heard that once or 37 times before.
The fact is, this war is messy and becoming more complicated by the day, but it’s far from resolved. To to help us understand where things sit, we’re joined today by Janatan Sayeh.
Jon is the Iran research analyst at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies focused on Iranian domestic affairs and the Islamic Republic’s malign influence. Prior to joining FDD, he supported Iranian activists through State Department grant programs.
