Tilting on an Axis: Searching for an exit ramp for Iran and Israel

The New Arab Voice podcast is back.

This week we're looking at the fallout from the recent killings of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh and Hezbollah commander Fuad Shukr.

Since the killings, tensions have increased, prompting a number of asking if the war will spread and engulf Lebanon and even Iran. 

Will violence increase and spread across the region? Will Iran and Hezbollah retaliate? Will Israel launch an attack? Who are the people trying to pull the region back from a wider conflict? And can a ceasefire for Gaza be secured, and will it be enough to calm tensions in the region?

Joining us, we have Khalil E. Jahshan (@KhalilEJahshan) is a Palestinian American political analyst and Executive Director of Arab Center Washington DC (@ArabCenterWDC). Also Dr. Nimrod Goren (@GorenNimrod), the Senior Fellow for Israeli Affairs at the Middle East Institute (@MiddleEastInst).

This podcast is written and produced by Hugo Goodridge (@hugogoodridge). 

Theme music by Omar al-Fil.
