Description:
Alastair Crooke tells Nima Alkhorshid that Senator Chris Murphy called a Trump administration briefing on restarting military operations against Iran insane and said the plan would prolong and escalate the war. Crooke says some form of military action after the US midterms is the most likely course, describes a message from JD Vance to Iran as a carrot beside threats of a larger war that Tehran will not answer with nuclear concessions, and says Netanyahu, possibly as a caretaker prime minister, could still join such a war.
