Emily Maitlis

We'll see you then.

Bye-bye.

This has been a Global Player Original Production.

Look, the question you're asking is, how much of a factor does the richest man in the world with all his Nazi friends getting involved in what is essentially a local crime play right now in British politics or indeed in world politics?

This is what happens when all the wealth in the world is going into trying to manipulate democracies and politics and says, this is disgusting, this is an invasion, go and do what you need to do.

And when you start using words like invasion and you have the wealth to throw this stuff around, then yes, what you're doing is you're inciting people out onto the streets.

I honestly think in years to come, people will look at Epic Fury as one of the greatest strategic failures in modern warfare.

He seems utterly powerless or in a position where the limits of American power have been reached and the idea that it can just tell a nation what to do and they will just salute politely and say, yes, sir, is not happening now.

The haunting sound of air raid sirens in northern Israel last night, civilians scurrying to air raid shelters and the sound of explosions in the sky as the ceasefire between Israel and Iran looks like it is in tatters.

It's John.

It's Maitlis.

And like two squabbling children and a parent who can't control them, it's hard to know who started it because the fingers are pointing in either direction.

Was it Israel attacking the suburbs of Beirut?

Was it the provocation of Hezbollah?

Was it Iran firing the missiles?

Was it Israel firing back?

I mean, he pays your money and he takes your choice, frankly.

But undoubtedly, the most significant escalation came with Iran attacking

firing ballistic missiles into northern Israel last night.

Donald Trump saying this has to stop.
