The World Waits to See What Happens in the Middle East as Tensions Escalate | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

As the situation in the Middle East is reaching a fever pitch, the world waits to see what will happen next. But there seems to be no doubt that Iran will retaliate against Israel. In fact, Iran's foreign ministry spokesperson said today that Iran will in part "definitely take serious deterrent action with power and divisiveness." Yet the country also said it is not looking to escalate regional tensions. Dr. Farhad Rezaei with the Philos Project helps us unpack this. According to a report by the Wall Street Journal, Iran is telling pilots to avoid its airspace and is warning of GPS disruptions all over the country. Rezaei discusses what this signals and how concerned we should be. The US has already deployed warships and fighter jets to the region to assist Israel, he discusses whether this could turn into an all out regional war. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
