Note
  • It's only the second time that Iranian missiles have rained down on Israel. Tehran's pushback comes as no surprise to François Picard's panel after a string of humiliations that included last week's assassination of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah and the targeting of the militant group's top commanders. Will the response beget more retaliation? Who to stop the spiral, with the United States currently in a state of limbo ahead of its presidential election?
