Is Trump dealing a death blow to the Iranian regime?

Is President Trump tightening the noose around Iran, or could the latest escalation ignite another major round of war? Ruthie Blum and Mark Regev unpack Trump’s renewed pressure on Tehran, from economic and military measures to his provocative call for the Iranian people to “rise up and fight.” They examine whether mounting economic distress could finally weaken the regime’s security forces, why Iran has so far avoided directly attacking Israel and whether the coming Jewish holidays could bring renewed escalation.

Then they turn to the bigger strategic picture: Iran’s battered nuclear program, its weakened network of proxies and its continued use of terrorism and assassination plots abroad. Finally, with Israel heading toward elections, Regev and Blum debate claims that replacing Benjamin Netanyahu would transform Israel’s standing in the world and whether Netanyahu’s experience dealing with Trump could become a decisive issue for Israeli voters. Viewers will learn why Iran may be closer to a breaking point than it appears, what could trigger another major Israeli-American offensive and how elections in both Israel and the United States could shape what happens next.
