One month into the U.S.-Israeli war against Iran, we speak with the Iranian American sociologist Ali Kadivar, who says the leadership in Tehran is consolidating its power and adopting more hard-line positions amid the conflict. He also warns that Trump’s threatened strikes on Iranian electricity and desalination infrastructure would constitute war crimes and likely push oil above $200 a barrel, risking global recession, while any seizure of Kharg Island would expose U.S. troops without producing a decisive result.

“These are all war crimes — and this is an American president threatening war crimes over and over publicly,” says Kadivar.
