'Threatening' will not work on Iran: Rohde slams Trump threat to strike civilian infrastructure - The Weekend - MS NOW
MS NOW’s Senior National Security Reporter, David Rohde — who was himself detained by the Taliban for seven months — reacts to Trump’s threat to strike Iranian power plants and bridges if the country does not open the Strait of Hormuz. He warns such language will only serve to further entrench militant radicals, rather than empower moderates to take over the country. - Aired on 04/05/2026.
