Trump, Israel, the Iran War, and the Death of the Two-State Solution (with Y. L. Al-Sheikh)
Summary
Layla Shikik joins to analyze the escalating regional conflict, detailing Israel’s expansion of settlements and the failure of the 2025 Gaza ceasefire. The discussion covers the US war against Iran, noting that the campaign has damaged American credibility with Gulf states and failed to achieve regime change. Shikik argues that Western inaction and the dehumanization of Arab populations enable these violations of international law, while the US remains trapped in an incoherent policy of supporting Israeli hegemony.
