Earlier this week, US Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman CQ Brown voiced concern that Israel would be drawn into a full-scale war with Hezbollah. General Brown stated his fears that if Israel seems to be beating the Iranian proxy, Tehran would then join the fight in order to save its Lebanese arm from annihilation. The inevitable conclusion is that Iran prefers saving its regional tentacles for a time of its own choosing, but, if one of them should be threatened with extinction, it would jump into the fray, even at the cost of making its homeland another battleground.
Is this a realistic scenario, and what may then happen to the executors of Iranian anti-Israel policy in Syria, Iraq, Yemen and west of the Jordan River? Joining us for the analysis :
