Tensions continue to escalate as Israel and Iran draw intense international attention. During his visit to the G-7 Summit in Canada, President Donald Trump urged both nations to reach a peace deal to end the ongoing conflict. While declining to discuss U.S. military involvement, Trump emphasized the urgency of efforts for Israel and Iran to make a deal. At the same time, the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops called for peace, warning that further nuclear proliferation and violence threaten regional stability. Eugene Kontorovich, Senior Research Fellow with the Heritage Foundation, shares what is happening on the ground in Israel, the effectiveness of Israel’s Iron Dome defense, and what Israel’s strategic goals might be. Lastly, he discusses the potential impact of U.S. military capabilities and whether the U.S. is likely to get involved.
