Many believed the war in the Middle East would be swift, but it has been over 40 days into the US-Israel military campaign against Iran and the war's trajectory has confounded what Washington's policymakers had predicted, journalist Mehdi Hasan told NDTV in an exclusive interview.

The weaker power in any struggle, whether it's a guerrilla movement or a smaller country, wins by not losing. Simply by not losing, you are winning," Hasan said.
