We look at Israel's threats to launch retaliatory strikes against Iran as fears grow of a broader regional war. We speak to analyst Trita Parsi, executive vice president of the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft, about the Biden administration sending U.S. troops and the top-of-the-line THAAD missile defense system to Israel. There are no direct and clear U.S. interests at stake here," says Parsi. Every time Israel escalates the war, Biden rushes in to protect Israel from the consequences of its own escalation," incentivizing Israel's escalation of tensions in the region and risking drawing the U.S. into war with Iran, he adds.
