Description

Rahm Emanuel is one of the very few people who have operated at every level of power in American politics. He’s a former congressman, White House chief of staff under President Obama, two-term mayor of Chicago, and the former ambassador to Japan under President Biden. He also has a very specific lens when it comes to the growing conflict in Iran, as he helped negotiate peace agreements alongside President Clinton in the 1990s and was in the Obama White House as they took the first steps toward the Iran nuclear deal. During his time in Obama’s administration, Emanuel dealt directly with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, even once getting into an argument with him in the Oval Office. Emanuel has a complicated personal past with Israel’s prime minister — who publicly called Emanuel a “self-hating Jew” in 2009 — but still very much considers himself pro-Israel. In a conversation with Vox’s Astead Herndon, he shares that he doesn’t believe that Netanyahu took action on Iran unilaterally, based on Netanyahu’s long history with US presidents.
