"Dealing with Iran" Robert Baer author and former CIA operative Conversations host Harry Kreisler welcomes former CIA operative Robert Baer for a discussion of his book on Iran--The Devil We Know. Baer discusses the craft of spying, U.S. policy in the Middle East, the emergence of Iran as a regional hegemon, and what we know about Iran's strategy and tactics as we witness the rise of its power. He discusses U.S. policy options in the region, especially relations with the two major powers in the region, Iran and Israel. Baer also analyzes the Iranian nuclear threat and the phenomena of suicide terrorism. He concludes with an assessment of the recent political turmoil in Iran and lays out what we know and don't know about which forces will dominate domestic politics in Iran. globetrotter.berkeley.edu/iis/Kreisler.html globetrotter.berkeley.edu/conversations/
