Why Israel Fears a US-Iran Nuclear Deal w/ Assal Rad

Assal Rad, scholar of modern Middle East history, non-resident fellow at DAWN, and author of State of Resistance: Politics, Culture & Identity in Modern Iran, joins the show to discuss the renewed US-Iran nuclear talks in Rome, as Israel threatens to sabotage diplomacy with strikes on Iranian nuclear sites.
Rad explains how Israel—rattled by any move toward peace—is working to upend negotiations and drag the US into another catastrophic war. With Trump reengaging on Iran, will Washington continue enabling Israel’s path of endless escalation, or step back from the brink? Rad breaks it all down.
“It tells you something about the language of ‘threat’ that Israel is committing genocide and has nukes, yet that question is never raised” –@AssalRad
