Israel's violent escalation w/ Eskandar Sadeghi-Boroujerdi and Nathaniel George

On the 27th of September Israel dramatically escalated its war on
Hezbollah, by assassinating its Secretary General Hassan Nasrallah.
Four days later Iran responded to the killing of its long-standing
ally by launching a missile attack on Israel - targeting military
and intelligence facilities. In today's episode Eskandar
Sadeghi-Boroujerdi and Nathaniel George join PTO to talk about
whether the killing of Nasrallah - and the wider leadership -
represents an existential threat to Hezbollah, and about the
group's prospects in combating Israel's ground invasion. We also
talked about the effectiveness of Iran's missile strikes and the
degree to which Iran has been able to restore any measure of
deterrence. We also touched on the dire humanitarian situation in
Lebanon, which comes on top of years of grinding economic and
political crisis. Finally, we discussed the position of the United
States and the apparent appetite in Washington for settling
accounts with the America's regional adversaries.
