As Israel’s war on Iran escalates, the media continues to flip the script—framing Israel as the victim and Iran as the aggressor, despite Israel initiating the conflict with bombings, assassinations, and covert attacks.

In this special live episode of Dispatches, Rania Khalek is joined by political analyst Assal Rad to expose the media’s double standards, the U.S. role in orchestrating the war under the false pretense of diplomacy, and the bigger geopolitical consequences of this growing conflict.

They also discuss Trump’s broken promises, the collapse of international law, the failure of strategic patience, and what may come next if the U.S. directly joins Israel’s war.
