America's Foreign Policy Stalemate: how is war in the Middle East impacting the election cycle?

  • Summary

  • In an historic week for relations in the Middle-East, which saw Israel launch a ground invasion of Lebanon and Iran fire hundreds of missile towards the Israeli capital, The Political Cyclists gather to discuss the impact that war in the region is having on the American election.

Emily Tamkin reports back from a fraught DC, while Rohan Venkat and Tom Hamilton probe the international perspective.
