Iran-Israel Escalation Raises Stakes In Middle East

Over the weekend, Iran launched a barrage of missiles on Israel in retaliation over an Israeli strike on its consulate in Damascus that killed 13 people. Although no direct targets were hit, the unprecedented attack raises questions over the risk of a wider conflict in the Middle East. Dr. James Dorsey of the S. Rajaratnam School of International Studies discusses the potential repercussions of an escalation between Iran and Israel.
