What do you think of RevLeft Radio's recent takes on Iran and international politics?

In this video posted today (https://www.youtube.com/live/0ggaIWliyuY) they discussed the situation in Iran. I'm only 35 minutes in, and so far they seem to think that major factors in Trump's decision to attack Iran are pressure from Saudi Arabia and Israel, and because Trump wants the US to be actively at war so he can suspend the US midterm elections.

A couple of weeks ago they had another episode that also had some questionable takes (https://revolutionaryleftradio.libsyn.com/guillotines-for-the-epstein-class). For example, they bought into the narrative that Venezuela was selling oil to Israel.

I get the impression that they are consuming mostly western media and believing it quite uncritically (Alyson specifically cited CNN as a source for some of what she mentioned). Their perspectives also seem overly focused on US domestic issues and the psychology of Trump, perhaps lacking an adequate understanding of the bigger picture of these international situations in terms of capitalism/imperialism.

I've listened to a lot of their content, especially the older theory-focused episodes with Alyson, which were very helpful back when I was first beginning my ML study. Not sure if something has changed with them recently, or if I'm just now noticing it, but some of their recent takes on geopolitical issues are troubling to me.

So basically my question is, what are your thoughts on these takes they've had? I'm especially wondering about the claim of Saudi Arabia pressuring the US to attack Iran, as this was the first I've heard of that.
