The Israeli War to dismantle Iran's nuclear infrastructure has been hard and fast. There was a lot of speculation about whether Trump would step in and finish the job. He did. At least the United States stepped in. But is the job finished?

In this live conversation, military expert Andrew Fox and A Paratrooper And A Yogi Walk Into A Bar... cohost, Shana Meyerson, dissect the escalation and eventual descalation of the war to save the world from a nuclear armed Iran. Will the Ayatollah Khamenei survive the war? Or is regime change on the horizon?

Andrew Fox is a research fellow at the Henry Jackson Society. He served for 16 years in the British Army, leaving the Parachute Regiment with the rank of Major. He completed 3 tours in Afghanistan including one attached to US Army Special Forces, as well as further tours of Bosnia, Northern Ireland and the Middle East. He was a senior lecturer at the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst, teaching in the War Studies and Behavioural Science departments. In the last year he has visited Gaza twice as well as Hezbollah tunnels in Lebanon. Andrew is a regular Middle East commentator on GB News, TalkTV and LBC radio, and has been published in The Spectator, The Sun, The Daily Telegraph, New York Post and The Tablet, amongst others.

Military expert Andrew Fox delivers an urgent, no-nonsense briefing following Israel’s decisive strike on key Iranian military, scientific, and hierarchical targets. With years of experience analyzing Middle East conflict zones, Fox explains this necessary and precise blow against Iran’s escalating regional threat network. He and co-host Shana Meyerson discuss Israel's actions as not only justified, but essential for preventing a larger war, dismantling Iran’s proxy terror infrastructure, and restoring deterrence in the region.

In this live discussion, Andrew Fox analyzes the Israeli Defense Forces and their surgical accuracy, minimizing civilian casualties while crippling Iran's strategic assets. Tehran’s ambitions for regional domination and nuclear capability left Israel with no choice but to act decisively...and quickly. Israel will never allow its enemies to threaten its survival unchallenged. Never Again is Now.

GET THE FULL REPORT: https://bit.ly/3SEeI0g

Since 10/7, the UN has issued 367 reports on the Gaza Strip. A review shows the UN has never acknowledged Hamas’ use of human shields, referencing it only 4 times—as an “allegation,” Israeli “claim,” or unverified “report.” The UN has not devoted even a paragraph—let alone a report—to analyzing how Hamas has fought in Gaza. By contrast, it has issued at least 10 reports criticizing Israel’s conduct, including accusations of “indiscriminate attacks” and illegal strikes on hospitals.

A Nov. 2024 UN report accused Israel of genocide but made no mention of Hamas’ tactics. Similarly, Amnesty International & Human Rights Watch released reports in Dec. 2024 accusing Israel of genocide. Across 100's of pages, readers would barely know Hamas exists. Neither report discusses its use of human shields.

In this episode, Andrew Fox discusses his report (co-written with Salo Aizenberg) for the Henry Jackson Society—the “missing chapter” in UN and NGO narratives. It provides a detailed analysis of Hamas’ systematic use of human shields during the 10/7 war & wider Gaza conflict, drawing on international media, military assessments, legal frameworks & firsthand accounts to show how Hamas embedded operations in civilian areas, weaponizing Gaza’s population and urban terrain for tactical and strategic gain.
