What is really happening in the Middle East today? What is the basis of the conflict between Israel and Iran? What are the implications for the balance of power between the U.S., China and Russia? How is this likely to play out? And is there indeed the potential for World War III?

To answer these questions, this week we have a special guest, Dr. Paul  Lushenko.
