JBN’s Ariella Noveck was joined by former Ambassador to Israel Michael Oren for a substantive and wide ranging conversation on the backstory of the war with Iran.

They unpacked the strategic miscalculations, the regional power shifts, the role of the United States, and the long building tensions that led to this moment. They also discussed what may come next militarily, politically, and diplomatically and what it could mean for Israel, Iran, and the broader Middle East.

The conversation also included a few light hearted Purim moments amid the serious discussion.

A critical conversation at a critical time.
