SUMMARY:The Tectonic Shifts in the Middle East As President Trump Assumes Power
DESCRIPTION:  \nThe transcript will be available here \nAs the forces of the IDF have decisively crippled Hezbollah in Lebanon\, and as Damascus falls from the Iranian-backed regime of Bashar al-Assad to the Turkish-backed forces of Mohammad al-Jolani\, with his background in Jabhat al-Nusra\, (Al Qaeda in the Levant) and ISIS\, how will Iran respond? How is President Recep Tayyip Erdogan responding to this new Syria? What are his new ambitions? Is Iran\, which has met with major defeats on their proxy battlefields\, lurching toward nuclear breakout? What could Israel do to prevent this? What should the United States and the West do? What sort of protection can the United States offer Israel against protection from the Iranian-backed Houthis? After 15 months\, does Israel have the manpower and military capability to fight so many battles on so many fronts\, and if need be\, alone? \nHere to answer these questions and more is David Wurmser. \nAbout our Speaker: Dr. David Wurmser is a senior fellow and director of the Project on Global Anti- Semitism and the US-Israel Relationship at the Center for Security Policy\, as well as being a senior fellow at the Kohelet Policy Forum. He also is the executive and founding member of the Delphi Global Analysis Group\, LLC – a firm specializing in geopolitical risk analysis and mitigation for infrastructure\, high-tech\, defense and financial firms from the United States\, Japan and India navigating in Israel – – since its founding in 2007. From December 2018 until September 2019\, Dr. Wurmser also served as senior advisor to the U.S. National Security Advisor\, Ambassador John Bolton. \n\n\n\nPrior to this\, Dr. Wurmser was the senior advisor from 2003-2007 to the U.S. Vice President Cheney on Middle East\, proliferation and strategic affairs. Before becoming the senior advisor for the Vice President in 2003\, Dr. Wurmser was the senior advisor to Under Secretary of State John Bolton at the State Department. \nImmediately following the 9/11 attacks\, Dr. Wurmser consulted until January 2002 for the Office of the Secretary of Defense in the U.S. Department of Defense on a war‐related classified project on understanding the nature and strategic significance of terrorist group networks and their interactions with states. \nBefore entering government\, Dr. Wurmser founded the Middle East studies program at the American Enterprise Institute (AEI) in 1996. While at AEI Dr. Wurmser\, published Tyranny’s Ally: America’s Failure to Defeat Saddam Hussein.
