Iran’s Regional Axis : Between Life and Death

When the Islamic Republic planned to act on its hegemonic ambitions, it set out to create a regional system of proxies in the Arabian Peninsula and the Eastern Mediterranean; the Mastermind being Kassem Suleimani of the Revolutionary Guards Quds Force and the Commander-in-Chief none other than the Supreme Leader Ali Khameini.

Now Suleimani is long gone, leaving Khameini barely surviving along with his threatened regime, pending a military decision by the US. What then are the prospects for the various proxies, as the Tehran-led Axis is staring down a crossroads of life or death? Joining us for the discussion:
- Host : Jonathan Hessen : TV7 Editor in Chief and Host of TV7 Israel News
- Analyst : Amir Oren : TV7 Editor at Large
- BG (Ret.) Mark Kimmitt : former US Assistant Secretary of State for Political-Military Affairs
- Hussain Abdul Hussain : FDD Research Fellow
