Iran War Ceasefire: Was It Worth It? Bret Stephens | Unholy Podcast

One of America's sharpest foreign policy voices gives his first honest assessment of the Iran ceasefire — and it's more complicated than either side wants to admit. Bret Stephens — opinion columnist at the New York Times, former editor of the Jerusalem Post, and editor-in-chief of Sapir — was one of the few prominent voices who defended the US-Israel war on Iran from the start. Now that it's over, does he still think it was worth it? Yonit Levi and Jonathan Freedland press him on the hard questions: — A senior Israeli defense official told Channel 12: "The objectives of the war had not been achieved. Especially not the removal of the nuclear threat." Was this war a failure? — Is Iran's nuclear threat truly degraded — or just delayed by months? — The Strait of Hormuz: has Iran now demonstrated an economic weapon the whole world has to fear? — Israel's reputation among young Americans — including young conservatives — is eroding. What does that mean for the alliance a generation from now? Bret Stephens is a Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist at the New York Times. He delivered the State of World Jewry address earlier this year in New York City.
