Iran War, Israeli Spying, and the ODNI Shakeup | EYES ON GEOPOLITICS

Mick Mulroy and Jonathan Hackett break down the latest on the Iran war, including the stalled ceasefire talks, the Strait of Hormuz crisis, Israel and Hezbollah, sanctions, and whether the U.S. air campaign has created more strategic problems than it solved. They also dig into Israeli spying concerns, the ODNI shakeup after Tulsi Gabbard’s exit, and how Russia and Iran are using gaming platforms, crypto, cyber, AI, and new tech to reshape modern intelligence work.
