Straight Talk with Mark Bouris
#194 Trump, Iran & Israel: Ceasefire or are we in WW3? Military Strategist on what happens next
24 Jun 2025
In this episode recorded today, I speak with military strategist Major General Mick Ryan. After 35 years in the Australian Army, including deployments to East Timor, Iraq, and Afghanistan, and service on the U.S. Joint Staff, Mick now advises companies across Australia, the UK, and the U.S. He breaks down the recent Iran-Israel confrontation and the US-brokered ceasefire, unpacking the complex geopolitical dynamics, technological warfare, and strategic calculations behind the scenes. Is this a genuine step toward peace — or just a temporary pause in a much larger conflict? We dive deep into the military maneuvers, intelligence tactics, and what it all means for the future of global security.
