What Israel Really Wants in Iran – Israeli Journalist Gideon Levy

Why has Israel pushed for a war with Iran for decades and what are the real objectives behind it? In this interview, Israeli journalist Gideon Levy speaks with Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist Chris Hedges about political motives, strategic interests, and a conflict with global implications.

Levy challenges dominant narratives and describes a reality that differs significantly from how the situation is often presented — both inside Israel and internationally.

This video was produced by The Chris Hedges YouTube Channel and published on the 25th of March, 2026.
