President Trump reportedly berated members of his own party yesterday in a bad-tempered meeting with Senate Republicans on the Iran War. Several Republicans defied Trump to pass a War Powers resolution which - symbolically - orders him to end military action or get their permission first.
But while the endless MAGA schisms are fascinating, they are not the main barrier to peace - and Trump knows it. Israel is bitterly opposed to the US deal with Iran and has made its feelings known.
Successive US presidents stood by Israel throughout the war on Gaza, even as many of its traditional allies expressed shock and alarm at the scale of civilian suffering.
But just as the US met the limits of its power in the war on Iran. Israel is discovering that the limits to its power are met by challenging America’s interests.
Piers Morgan speaks to New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristof, a twice-winner of the Pulitzer Prize, who faced a ferocious outcry for his work last month and Executive Director of the Urban Warfare Institute John Spencer.
Then, for the first time in our Uncensored London studios, Piers sits down with mathematician Eric Weinstein, who’s both a close friend of JD Vance and a strident supporter of Israel.
