The National Security Podcast Iran, Israel and the future of Middle East security
Where do the other Middle East countries and the Gulf nations stand on the Iran-Israel conflict? How do they view the US’ changing foreign policy?
What were the motivations behind the recent US and Israeli attacks on Iran? Was it preventive or pre-emptive action?
Is regime change in Iran a realistic objective by Israel/US?
Could Australia be asked to support future US military or strategic actions in the region?
