In this episode, Daniella and Yossi unpack a set of questions that go far beyond the current news cycle: why outside powers so often overestimate what the Kurds can deliver, how proxy relationships break down, what war does to civilian infrastructure and refugee flows, and how Iran uses missiles, drones, and regional pressure to shape the battlefield. They also explore the deeper ideological roots of the Islamic Republic, and what Iranian strategic culture can tell us about sacrifice, leadership, and decision-making in prolonged conflict.
