🎙️ Host: Muhammad Mahdiari
👥 Special Guest: Professor Peter Kuznick (Director of the Nuclear Studies Institute at American University, Washington DC)

🔍 Episode Overview:
In this interview originally aired on June 11, 2026, Professor Peter Kuznick argues that the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran has backfired spectacularly, leaving Washington trapped in an illegal and unwinnable conflict. Iran, having prepared for decades, has preserved the bulk of its military capabilities and now holds strategic leverage through its control of the Strait of Hormuz and its ability to inflict asymmetric damage on U.S. and allied assets. Referring to declining support for Israel in the United States in the context of the broader crisis of American empire, Kuznick argues that the U.S., as a declining empire, is overstretched and outmaneuvered by adversaries playing the long game, while domestic opposition to the war is historically unprecedented. He warns that Trump's desperation and cognitive instability could still lead to reckless escalation, but the broader lesson is clear: "War is not the answer," and the world must choose between a future of peaceful cooperation or nuclear anarchy.
🔑 Key Takeaways:
• Netanyahu finally found a U.S. president stupid enough to attack Iran.
• Trump is trapped without good options.
• A desperate, cognitively impaired Trump truly capable of using nukes?
• The war is historically unpopular, with 70% of Americans opposing it from the start.
• Iran's control of the Strait of Hormuz is more valuable than a nuclear weapon.
• The U.S. is a declining empire, groveling before China's dominance.
• The lesson many countries learned from Libya and Iraq is that weakness invites invasion.
• The world faces a choice between nuclear anarchy and peaceful development.
