Learning about the JCPOA was also very insightful for me, especially in light of the last few weeks of the presidential election and the differing approaches of the two candidates on re-launching such a deal, and the much more prominent role of the Houthis since the October 7th attacks in Israel. With Israel now engaged in operations against not just Hamas, but also Hezbollah as well, at times it starts to feel more like an Israel-Iran conflict, rather than just the Israel-Gaza war it’s often branded as (again, this is the media failing to provide proper context).
