Mike Doran: Has Iranian Threat Been Neutralized?

Peloni:  Mike Doran discusses the unbelievable achievements which have been achieved over the past two years by Israel against its enemies.  He also examines the degree of coordination which was used between the US and Israel in the leadup to the US attack on Iran’s nuclear program and how successful the attack actually was.  The red lines which have been broken between the US and Israel in this attack have completely shattered the existing regional taboos, and laid the groundwork for the re-imagining of the entire region which PM Netanyahu referenced in his recent trip to Washington.  Much of all of this was anticipated by Doran in his article, the King’s Foil, which has proved to be very useful in grasping how to judge the seemingly inconsistent statements emanating from Washington and Trump.  See below for Chapters.
