Hillary Mann Leverett: "This path leads us to another unnecessary war in the Middle East"

Hillary Mann Leverett on the U.S. and EU sanctions against Iran and the consequences of an attack on Iran by the United States and Israel for the U.S. position in the Middle East and around the world:
"As an American strategist, my concern is this path leads us to another unnecessary war in the Middle East that will not only kill people, but will dramatically degrade America's standing, hurt the United States and hurt our allies in the long-term that rely on a credible and strong America." [20:25 - 20:44]. Source: Al Jazeera, "Inside Story - Iran: The impact and limits of sanctions."
