Scott Lucas on Press TV: Will Israel Attack Iran?

Together with former CIA operative Robert Baer and University of Wisconsin professor Jennifer Loewenstein, I appeared on Middle East Today on Press TV on Thursday to discuss the possibility of Israeli military action against Tehran. I was the most sceptical of the panellists about that possibility: the Israeli threat, in my opinion, is best seen as a political manoeuvre to get Washington to break off engagement with Iran (and to stall on any negotiations over a Palestinian state), a point I also tried to make in The Guardian on Thursday.
