Is it time for the U.S. to reassess its Iran strategy?
Season 2026
Episode 19
With talks stalled and Iran maintaining its chokehold over the Strait of Hormuz, President Trump is weighing whether to restart the war. Strikes failed to eliminate Iran’s regime or destroy its military and nuclear capabilities, so is it time for the U.S. to reassess its strategy? Compass Points moderator Nick Schifrin discusses this with Sina Azodi, Justin Logan, Firas Maksad and Danielle Pletka.
