Escalation in the War with Iran

Today on the show, the war with Iran shows no signs of slowing. President Trump took to Truth Social to threaten Iran into opening the Strait of Hormuz. This came after the successful conclusion of a high-stakes mission to rescue a stranded airman from an F-15 jet Iran shot down Friday. Fareed speaks with Richard Haass, president emeritus of the Council on Foreign Relations, and Zanny Minton Beddoes, editor-in-chief of The Economist, about the recent developments and where the war might go from here. Then, many of the Iranian regime’s top leaders have been killed since the start of the war. Fareed is joined by the International Crisis Group’s Ali Vaez to discuss what Iran’s current leaders might be thinking, and if they are more likely than before to pursue a nuclear bomb. Finally, in the minds of many, the Islamic Revolution of 1979 dominates Iranian history. But the British-Iranian historian Ali Ansari tells Fareed that you must look further back to truly understand one of the world's oldest civilizations.

Then, as President Trump dispatches thousands of additional troops to the Middle East, Fareed talks to Ret. Lt. Gen. Mark Hertling about where the war is headed.

Finally, Mark Zuckerberg’s Meta lost two landmark court cases this week, as juries found some social media platforms liable for addicting or harming kids.

Striking Iran: Analysis from the Global Public Square

Fareed Zakaria reports that Iran’s supreme leader Ayatollah Khomeini has been killed amid U.S.-Israel attacks under “Operation Epic Fury,” with Trump urging Iranians to overthrow their government and promising continued bombing despite recently ongoing nuclear talks that Oman said had made breakthroughs. Zakaria argues the war lacks clear legal and strategic grounding, that airpower rarely achieves regime change, and that unilateral action undermines rules-based order, while Iran’s weakness and regional backlash—especially after strikes on Gulf states hosting U.S. assets—may not translate into Trump’s stated aims. Guests discuss the decapitation strikes, the likely next targets including Iran’s naval forces and IRGC mid-tier leadership, and the risk of leadership-targeting becoming more common.

It's a great, intelligent and thoughtful show and a great podcast about the important issues and current events of our day!
Technically flawed at presentation on podcast

This is by far the podcast I wait for each weekend. The past few podcasts if GPS have been late and riddled with technical difficulties: adverts cutting in in the middle of sentences in interviews or monologues of the presenter. Badly edited segments jumping from one half finished sentence to another as in a badly scratched CD. This is not acceptable for a show of this caliber. It’s a recent thing though, new staff or bad planning - or just disinterested I live in Finland and rely on those podcasts for my news intake. Please fix it. Thanks. Evan (Helsinki).
