Foreign Affairs with Diplomat David Hunter and Mayor of the Airwaves Rhett Palmer 3-25-26

Today's Topics

1) Iran  An Imminent Threat?:  Israel for a second time massively attacked Iran, again claiming Iran was an 'imminent threat' to Israel,  just weeks from having a working and deployable nuclear weapon.  Trump prior to  the Feb 28th joint attack said he sensed Iran was getting ready for it's own pre-emptive attack on US bases in Middle East, and  it's ongoing negotiations were a fake distraction.  What do you think? 

2)  Cuba on The Brink of Collapse?:  The US has imposed harsh sanctions on Cuba for almost 60 years. The economy is crumbling. Trump has enacted a total oil embargo on the island to force 'regime change'.  Will it collapse, or will Russia come to Cuba's rescue and supply it with badly needed oil?       

3) Are NATO Member States Cowards?: Trump has challenged NATO states to send military ships to help escort oil tankers through Straits of Hormuz.  But they are reluctant to do so, so he is calling them cowards.  What do you think of this situation?  Will it damage NATO? 

4)  Boots On The Ground in Iran? :  The Israel Prime Minster is now saying it is unlikely  his goal of 'regime change' in Iran can be achieved without putting 'boots on the ground' .  What does that mean? Whose boots ---Israeli IDF troops or American Marines?
