Chokepoints: The New War Over Oil, Dollars, and Power

For the first time since the war began, Iran says the U.S. and Israel have targeted its oil and natural gas facilities, causing a spike in prices. This happens as the world faces the biggest energy supply disruption in history as Iran blockades the Strait of Hormuz. Former State Department official and author Edward Fishman joins the show to discuss the impact of the war on the global economy.
