On this premiere episode of Afshin Rattansi’s brand new show New Order, we speak to Prof. John Mearsheimer of the University of Chicago as the US-Israeli War on Iran rages on, destabilising the entire region. How do Russia and China benefit from the US-Israeli War on Iran? How should India change its foreign policy calculus with regards to the United States? Why does Iran hold all the cards as the war turns into a war of attrition? What now as the Israel Lobby’s responsibility for this war is out in the open following Joe Kent’s resignation from the Trump Administration? What does this war mean for BRICS and multipolarity? We cover all this and more with Prof. John Mearsheimer. Finally New Order’s Zarah Khan reads out your questions asked on X, which Afshin Rattansi answers!
