‘Occupation of the US by Israel – that’s the world we live in’ - Dr. Hasan Unal

In the latest edition of Sanchez Effect, Rick and his guest, Baskent University International Relations Professor Dr. Hasan Unal, dissect the unsettling dynamic between the two countries. Even as Washington scrambles to negotiate with Tehran, Israeli Prime Minister waltzes into the Oval Office, guiding discussions like it’s his own playbook. This blatant influence has sparked a shift among Americans, with polls showing growing opposition to Israel’s sway in US politics and a strong aversion to war with Iran. So, who will Trump heed - his own constituents or Netanyahu’s whispers?

Rick questions why Gulf States are so silent while Israel expands its influence in the region. Dr. Unal suggests that they may actually fear Iran more than Israel, despite the latter being the more tangible threat. Convincing Arab States of this fact is part of an ongoing security dilemma. What’s the way forward? Tune in to our interview for all the insights - only on RT!
