The War with Iran and What Comes Next | Mike Pompeo & Michael Doran | Tikvah Podcast

Five days into a joint American–Israeli war against Iran, the Middle East has already been transformed. Israeli and American forces have struck targets across Iran, senior regime figures have been eliminated—including the Islamic Republic’s supreme leader, Ali Khamenei—and Tehran’s military capabilities have been significantly degraded. The region now faces a volatile new reality: Hezbollah has entered the conflict from Lebanon, the Strait of Hormuz is effectively closed, and the Iranian regime itself is confronting an uncertain succession crisis. To understand the strategy that led to these events, Jonathan Silver is joined by former CIA director and secretary of state Mike Pompeo and Hudson Institute senior fellow Michael Doran. Together they examine the theory behind the campaign against Iran, the prospects for political change inside the Islamic Republic, and the challenges of translating military success into lasting strategic advantage.
