Middle East expert says US, Israel must tell a very weak Iran: 'dismantle nuclear program or pay ultimate price’

On this episode of the podcast, Dr. Jonathan Schanzer, Executive Director of the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, breaks down the latest developments in U.S.–Iran negotiations and what’s at stake. He explains why Iran is in a weakened position as they face a multi-front conflict with Israel with exposed air defense vulnerabilities. The former terrorism finance analyst at the Department of Treasury who froze the funding of Hamas and al-Qaeda also explains why the United States must take an extremely firm stance on Iran’s nuclear ambitions. Furthermore, Dr. Schanzer explores the prospects for regime change in Tehran, the impact on regional stability, and how the Abraham Accords could shape the future of the Middle East
