We hear from Imam Tom Facchine as he discusses the rapidly changing Iran-Israel developments following Trump’s bombing of key nuclear facilities on Sunday, the Iranian strike on al-Udeid Air Base in Qatar on Monday, and the bizarre announcement of a ceasefire between the two sides on Tuesday.

All this and more, in this episode.
