@Dr_M_Davis @CNN Thanks for being with me! 📺

Yesterday talking with @CNN's @BenInLDN on US options for the use of ground forces in the #IranWar‌ and the challenges of opening the Straits of Hormuz. I also talk about the challenges of shallow missile magazine depth for the US and Israel in terms of missile defence capabilities, and the economic inequity of defeating $20,000 Iranian Shaheds with million dollar missile systems.

@LeapfrogMark @CNN @cnni @SurreyPolitics @UniOfSurrey Thanks for being with us! 📺

Always good to start my week on @CNN and @cnni with @BenInLDN talking Trump, DHS and Iran from @SurreyPolitics at @UniOfSurrey. This could be Trump's most dangerous week yet.

@Lahnrewaju I am VERY British! 🇬🇧 Moved to Malaysia for university, moved to Ireland for Google, jumped all around the world for the BBC & VICE, then moved to ATL/NYC for CNN! 🇺🇸

Wait @BenInLDN, you are not an American citizen??? Why did I think you left the US to school abroad and settled in the UK afterwards?

@LoukiaBorrell This is so wonderful to see. Thank you for sharing it!!

@BenInLDN You are welcome. My parents Cypriot immigrants, became naturalized American citizens in 1959. I know if they were to meet you, they would say May The Force Be With You!

A year of stress and paperwork… 🇺🇸✅ My EB-1 green card is approved. I’m officially a US PERMANENT RESIDENT! And I’m finally free to leave America for the first time in nine months 🇬🇧 Huge thanks to CNN, Warner Bros Discovery, and my former bosses at the BBC & VICE. Onwards!

@StringerHolding @CNN @cnni Yikes! I don’t think I’ve ever been accused of whispering before 😂 but I hope I can win you over with my 4AM anchoring in the future! Have a good day 📺

Hey @CNN @cnni when are you going to get rid of @BenInLDN he is horrible on the air, he whispers all the damm time and no one can hear him!

@Alfoneh @cnni Thanks for being with me for CNNi & CNNUS! 📺🇺🇸

"President Trump has entangled the U.S. in a war without a clear objective and no exit strategy... Iran has a collective leadership,... but the IRGC is seizing power." Conversation with Mr. @BenInLDN on @cnni (Atlanta) March 16, 2026.

In Iran updated estimates from authorities indicated 600,000 to 1 million households leaving homes to seek safety - hoping this is temporary. An average family size of 3.2 people equals up to 3.2 million individuals now displaced inside the country. Our update with @BenInLDN
