In this episode of The Source, our founder and senior editor Zain Raza speaks with Professor Peter Kuznick about the U.S.–Israeli war on Iran and the broader geopolitical shifts shaping the world today. They examine how the war began, where it stands now, and whether the United States has achieved its strategic objectives — as well as the risks of further escalation.
The conversation then turns to Ukraine and the Asia-Pacific. As Europe takes on a larger role in financing the Ukraine war and Japan accelerates its military shift amid rising tensions around Taiwan, the interview connects these developments to a broader global pattern. What emerges is a deeper look at whether current dynamics point toward stability — or a more dangerous phase of geopolitical escalation.
