Matt Gagnon discusses the implications of Iran’s nuclear program and its impact on Israel, highlighting the ongoing conflict in Gaza and the role of Iran in supporting terrorist groups. He argues that the Trump administration’s involvement in the region, despite its non-interventionist stance, is driven by a commitment to protect Israel. Gagnon suggests that the U.S. shared intelligence with Israel before the strike and that the administration could have prevented it but chose not to. He notes the internal division within the administration on foreign policy, with interventionists like Marco Rubio advocating for stronger action against Iran.
