The US-Israeli led conflict in Iran has sent shock-waves around the region and the world with increasing tensions between neighbours, sky rocketing oil prices and blockades at the Strait of Hormuz.

We finally cover the big topic of the year with host Adam Quinn joined by returning guest Patrick Porter t to talk Iran war, its causes, potential outcomes and what Trump can only hope for now.

Has perceived success in ousting Maduro from Venezuelan government given the US false hope of a quick result in Iran? Should this have been an easy win for the US? What can they do now as allies pile on the pressure to find a resolution.

We discuss it all here.
