Eliot Cohen on Why America Keeps Losing Wars It Should Win
Yascha Mounk and Eliot Cohen delve into the lost meaning of “strategy” and why Trump's Iran gambit went off the rails.
Eliot A. Cohen is the Arleigh Burke chair in Strategy at the Center for Strategic and International Studies. His latest book is The Strategist: How to Think About War and Politics.
In this week's conversation, Yascha Mounk and Eliot Cohen discuss what genuine strategic thinking requires, why America's war with Iran represents a failure of strategy rather than of military capability, and what Winston Churchill's wartime memoranda reveal about what good strategy actually looks like.
