(RAD: I always find that Alastair Crooke has a lot of valuabel analysis to share on geopolitical issues, and this is no different. — RAD)

Alastair Crooke discusses how the Iran war has become a war of all-or-nothing: Iran is not going back to crippling sanctions and endless military threats, and it needs to break up the US-led international economic architecture. Time is on the side of Iran, and the US is becoming desperate. Crooke is a former British diplomat and the Founder of Conflicts Forum based in Beirut. He was formerly an advisor on Middle East issues to Javier Solana, the EU Foreign Policy Chief.
