Iran Won the War, But Will Israel Blow Up the Deal? | w/ Mohammad Marandi

“There is no doubt that Iran won this war”

Professor Mohammed Marandi joins Rania Khalek to discuss the reported US-Iran memorandum of understanding, why Iran insists Lebanon’s sovereignty is non-negotiable, and whether Israel could derail the deal before it is even signed. He explains how Iran views the 39-day war, the battle over Lebanon, Gaza’s place in the negotiations, and why he says Tehran has emerged stronger at both the battlefield and negotiating table.

“It’s not that Iran just survived, which everyone across the world was stunned by,” says Marandi. “Iran, till the very end, was pounding them day and night. And the damage that Iran did to the US-Israeli regime, and to their proxies in the region, was far greater than the damage they did to Iran in costs”
