Major General Paul J. Rock Jr. commands United States Marine Corps Forces Central Command, or MARCENT. That makes him the top U.S. Marine in the Middle East.
MajGen Rock is a Marine aviator with combat deployments to Iraq, and he was the commanding general of the 3d Marine Expeditionary Brigade before his current position.
He believes the biggest threat to U.S. interests in the Middle East is Iran and its proxies.
Why? What are Tehran and its terror proxies up to in the region?
What are China and Russia doing there?
How is MARCENT helping to build a regional security architecture?
And how can U.S. Congress help?
Guest host Bradley Bowman — Senior Director of FDD’s Center on Military and Political Power – asks MajGen Rock these and related questions.
