Hamas in Gaza, Hezbollah in Lebanon and the Houthis in Yemen are all part of the Iran-led "Axis of Resistance" which poses the biggest challenge to Israel in the Middle East. I spoke to Trita Parsi about the surprising history of Israeli-Iranian relations, and whether rising tensions between Israel and the axis could lead to an all-out regional war.
Trita Parsi is Executive VP of the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft and author of the classic book "Treacherous Alliance: The Secret Dealings of Israel, Iran, and the United States."
