Two Years Later: The Iran Nuclear Deal Examined

Chai Desert Radio

Two years into the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action—better known as the Iran nuclear deal—American Jews are still divided over its effectiveness and whether it has eased or exacerbated the threat Iran poses to the Sunni gulf states, Israel, and the United States. This episode of Chai Desert Radio features a conversation with Behnam Ben Taleblu, Senior Iran Analyst with the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, on the status of the deal and its impact on the broader Middle East. We discuss how Iran’s behavior under the deal has influenced the activities of other regional actors, its impact on Iran’s ability to fund Hamas and other terrorist organizations, and whether a possible renegotiation of the deal would mitigate Iran’s rise as a threat to its adversaries.
