(NewsNation) — Dan Perry, former Middle East editor for the AP, believes the next step of the operation against Iran, which he calls an “Israel-American operation, “would be the U.S. “stepping in with bunker-busting capabilities that only the United States has.” Perry says if the U.S. steps in, it would “absolutely risk a regional war” but could lead to an uprising among the Iranian people that could bring down the government, which Perry says would be “great for the region.”
