Why Tehran Might Outlast Washington | Dr Andreas Krieg

Help us expand our Muslim media project here: https://www.thinkingmuslim.com/membership Donate to our charity partner Baitulmaal here: http://btml.us/thinkingmuslim Dr Andreas Krieg joins us in discussion as events unfold rapidly following the unprovoked and illegitimate attack on Iran. We examine the assassination of senior Iranian leaders, Tehran’s retaliation against military and civilian targets in Israel and key Arab states, and the escalating strikes on sites such as the US airbase in Doha. Are we witnessing the start of a prolonged war of attrition between Iran, the US and Israel? Are their tactics sustainable? And does Washington even have a coherent strategy?
