Middle Eastern conflict has escalated following Iran's missile strike on Israel on Tuesday. Eurasia Group Founder & President Ian Bremmer joins Market Domination to discuss the aftermath of this intensifying geopolitical situation.

Bremmer notes that Iran's strike on Israel was "significantly greater" and posed considerably more danger than the strike back in April, when the Iranians sought to retaliate for the assassination of a leader in Tehran. He points out that the strike on Israel was telegraphed to the Americans, allowing Israel to implement defenses and safety measures. As a result, Bremmer observes, "it was very hard for Iranians to cause any significant damage."

"They clearly tried to meet in the middle," Bremmer explains. "They tried to do something that was more significant than April but that wouldn't cause so much damage that the Israelis and the Americans would respond. Having said that, the Israelis are in such a strong military position," noting that they may be looking for a reason to attack Iran's nuclear facilities.
