Today on the show, guest anchor Bianna Golodryga speaks with The New York Times’ David Sanger after a weekend of strikes between Iran and Israel. They discuss this escalating conflict and what it means for the future of US-Iran nuclear negotiations.

Next, Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar joins the show to tell Bianna what his country is hoping to achieve by attacking Iran’s nuclear facilities.

Then, Johns Hopkins professor Vali Nasr and The New Yorker’s Susan Glasser speak to Bianna about how the US will respond to the conflict between Iran and Israel, as well as the significance of President Trump’s military parade.

Finally, retired Major General James ‘Spider’ Marks joins to discuss the military dynamics at play between Iran and Israel and what the two countries’ defense capabilities might mean for the future of the conflict.
