At a Jerusalem Prayer Breakfast event at Mar-a-Lago on January 13, as uncertainty surrounded an escalating crisis in Iran, Berger told the audience he believed the moment carried a divine mandate. I don’t want to say he’s going to let them decide. Felice Friedson: Sanctions have been on and off. How long do you think sanctions are going to have to hold to have an impact? Steve Berger: Yeah, I think what’s going to happen is, as the US increases its pressure, that we’re going to see a free Iran arise.
