Why regime change without ground troops is so hard

Can you carry out regime change without boots on the ground? Will President Trump walk away now the Supreme Leader is dead? Does this feel like 2003 all over again?

Richard has been in Israel watching events unfold. He was in Tel Aviv when Israel and America launched strikes against Iran which ultimately led to the killing of Ayatollah Khamenei and many members of the top command.

In this special episode, Richard answers some questions about the situation and what might happen next.

He will be back with Yalda for a regular episode later in the week.
