    A secular democratic Iran will bring Palestinians and Israelis together, enabling them to live side by side like brothers and sisters. The Islamic Republic needs conflicts to extend its lifespan. An absolute majority of Iranians want change, and they will earn it.

    The conclusions reached on this show seem to be at odds with the opinions of people like Ryan MacBeth, who has served in the military, and doubts that Iran could sustain an actual war with Israel - because they just can supply an army that far from home. Wish there were a few contrary opinions like Ryan’s, so we could suss out what the truth of the situation actually is.
