On March 25, the Miller Center of Public Affairs hosted the National Debate on Iran at the Andrew Mellon Auditorium. The debate was the second installment of Season Two: "Priorities for a New President." Four debaters, two on each side, had one hour to debate the following resolution: America cannot tolerate a nuclear Iran and must go to any lengths to prevent it. Arguing in favor of the resolution was Elliott Abrams, Senior Fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations, and Joshua Muravchik, Visiting Scholar at Johns Hopkins University's School of Advanced International Studies. Opposing the resolution was Ambassador Martin S. Indyk, Director of the Brookings Institutions Saban Center for Middle East Policy, and Karim Sadjadpour, associate at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace. Margaret Warner, Senior Correspondent for The NewsHour with Jim Lehrer, moderated the debate. Please visit millercenter.org for full debate video and background materials.
