As of this afternoon, June 23rd, the world is reeling from an Iranian missile strike on Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar—a direct retaliation for the coordinated U.S.-Israeli bombing of Iran's nuclear facilities. The official narrative from Washington is clear: this is about preventing a nuclear-armed Iran and ensuring regional stability.

But what if that isn't the whole story?

On this episode of Deep Dive: Uncovered, we go beyond the chaos of the 24-hour news cycle to investigate the evidence suggesting the real target isn't in Tehran, but in Beijing. We analyze the declassified memos, economic data, and military doctrines that point to a disturbing conclusion: the conflict with Iran may be a calculated first move in a great power showdown with China.
