Today on the show, Israel launched retaliatory strikes on Iran. New York Times Magazine staff writer Ronen Bergman joins Fareed to discuss the fallout from these strikes and the likelihood of further escalation. 

Next, former U.S. Ambassador to Iraq, Afghanistan, and Lebanon Ryan Crocker speaks with Fareed about his concerns that Israel’s wars with Hamas and Hezbollah will last for years.

Then, former U.S. State Department official Jung Pak speaks with Fareed about the implications of thousands of North Korean troops being deployed to Russia for training, and the significance of the growing alliance between Moscow and Pyongyang. 

Finally, author of “Of Boys and Men” Richard Reeved joins to tell Fareed about the crisis facing American men, and why the Democratic party has lost so much support among the group.
