On 10 July 2026, I was on the "Deep Dive" with Lt. Col. (ret.) Danny Davis, where we talked mainly about Iran, although we did discuss Ukraine in the last part of the show. On Iran, we talked about the tit-for-tat bombing campaign between Iran and the US that has replaced the failed strategic bombing campaign (28 February-8 April 2026) and the failed naval blockade (13 April-17 June 2026).
