Summary

Israel has been scoring victories against Iran in what has now been five days of strikes against the Islamic Republic, with the broader goal of destroying their nuclear weapon capabilities. So far the American military has only helped Israel to defend itself from Iranian ballistic missiles, but recent moves from President Trump suggest he is weighing U.S. involvement. Vice President at the Lexington Institute and national security expert Dr. Rebecca Grant joins FOX's John Saucier to explain the focus on Iran's nuclear facilities, President Trump's threat against Iran's leader, and the U.S. demanding "unconditional surrender."
