Israeli Security Chiefs Head to Washington to Discuss Iran, Syria, and Lebanon

Matthew RJ Brodsky joins Michelle Makori on i24News ClearCut to discuss the Israeli delegation's upcoming visit to Washington where Iran, Syria, and Lebanon will be on the menu. Brodsky previews the meeting and the topics of Iran's regional ascendancy in the face of ISIS defeats, Trump administration options on the nuclear deal with Iran, and U.S. support for the Lebanese Armed Forces even as they work with Hezbollah. The Israeli team of Yossi Cohen, director of the Mossad intelligence agency; Maj. Gen. Herzl Halevi, chief of the Israel Defense Forces' military intelligence; and Zohar Palti, director of the Defense Ministry's political-security department, will certainly have a full plate when they meet U.S. national security adviser, H.R. McMaster; the deputy national security adviser, Dina Power; and special Mideast envoy Jason Greenblatt.
