President Trump has ordered a high-stakes strike on Iran’s nuclear program and decimated decades of progress in a matter of hours. In this episode of The P.A.S. Report, Professor Nick Giordano breaks down what led to this unprecedented operation, the strategic brilliance behind the plan, and the ripple effects it may cause across the Middle East and the world. From the question of whether the President has the constitutional authority to order this strike to the rising drumbeat for regime change, Professor Giordano explains why Iran is more isolated than ever and warns of the dangers of mission creep that could drag the U.S. into another endless war.
