    Great interview. Brilliant questioning met with equally compelling insights.

    Alternatively, taking out leaders can lead to power struggle among junior leader and lead to collapse. This attack happened after 40 years of talks.

    Fareed is absolutely right. India should focus on its own interests (defense tech with Israel and energy navigation diplomacy with Iran), and not meddle into the global war to play good Samaritan unnecessarily.<br><br>India shares good relations with both Iran and Israel. I hope both the countries stop the war, live peacefully and do a lot of trade with India.

    It is both troubling and unexpected that discussions focus on the specifics of regime change, the arsenals employed in attacks, and the elimination of a nation. Meanwhile, there is a disconcerting silence regarding the human lives lost, the pain and suffering endured by the Iranian people, and the harsh reality that two uncivilised nations, along with their murderous leaders, are systematically decimating an ancient culture without any justification. They possess neither the right nor the moral authority to act in such a manner. It is hoped that a civilised society will at least denounce this barbarism.
