Victor Davis Hanson and co-host Sami Winc examine the agreement’s implications, the future of Hezbollah and Lebanon, and why enforcement—not diplomacy— will determine its success. They also explore the World Cup, controversy surrounding Iran’s national team, and why many international visitors find America far different from the negative image often portrayed abroad. Hanson also reflects on the remarkable life of John Adams, his complicated relationship with Thomas Jefferson, and their lasting influence on the American founding. The episode concludes with discussion of Europe’s immigration crackdown, Ukraine’s expanding drone war against Russia, and the changing security landscape across Europe and the Middle East. 👉Use code VICTOR at the check out and get 35% off your order at HTTPS://WWW.PUREHEALTHRESEARCH.COM/ Learn more about your ad choices.
