Israel-Iran strikes: What comes next?
Longstanding tensions came to a head last week when Israel launched a missile attack on Iran, targeting the country's nuclear facilities and killing several high-level military personnel and nuclear scientists. In the days following the two countries have exchanged missile strikes, killing at least 78 in Iran and 13 in Israel.
As the conflict continues to escalate, what will it mean for the region? And as the bombardment derails Iran-U.S. nuclear talks, will the U.S. be pulled into an active war? To discuss this perilous moment and its dangerous implications, we're joined by Gregg Carlstrom, a longtime Middle East correspondent with The Economist and author of the book "How Long Will Israel Survive? The Threat From Within."
