Emergency Briefing: Understanding the Israel-Iran War

This is a recording of a New Jewish Narrative webinar from June 19th, 2025.

The Israeli government's decision to begin a bombing campaign in Iran on Thursday marked the beginning of a new chapter in the conflict. All of us are trying to make sense of the military action, the diplomatic fallout, and what the consequences will be for Israel, the region, and for the United States. New Jewish Narrative hosted an emergency webinar with Ambassador Dan Shapiro, former U.S. Ambassador to Israel and one of the experts best able to brief us on what’s really happening—and what comes next.

Ambassador Shapiro was in conversation with Hadar Susskind, President and CEO of New Jewish Narrative.
