The Deal Israel Feared Most Came To Life | Interview With Mohammad Marandi

<p>As more information about the content of the Memorandum of Understanding between the US and Iran emerges, the full scale of Iran’s resounding victory is becoming clear. </p><p>This interview with the renowned Professor Marandi, we explore the scale of the defeat of the US and Israel, the vindication of the Islamic Republic’s historic support for the oppressed and downtrodden of the world, the direct result of this victory in empowering the people around the world, in particular in the West Asian region, where imperialism has supported autocracy for over a century and used them as supports for Zionism, and even in the US, where popular revulsion against the war played a critical role in forcing Trump to end the War. </p><p>Resources mentioned by Mohammad Marandi: </p><p>1. Going to Tehran by Flynt Leverett </p><p>2. Resistance: The Essence of the Islamist Revolution by Alastair Crooke </p><p>3.

Iran Defeated The US Empire. What Happens Next? Michael Hudson and Radhika Desai

<p>Trump’s ‘deal’ with Iran represents the end of Trumps’ futile search for an off ramp from the conflict that can be tarted up to look like a victory, at least to the most credulous and loyal of his dwindling following. Michael Hudson and Radhika Desai assess this defeat and its implications for the US economy, for US politics, the dollar system and on how it will accelerate the construction of more democratic institutions of international governance.</p>

The West Couldn't Break North Korea And Now They're Afraid | Keith Bennett and Radhika Desai

<p>President Xi Jinping followed up his summits with Presidents Putin and Trump with his first foreign trip of the year. The destination – North Korea, or the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, a nation of some 26 million normally portrayed in the Western media as a dangerously authoritarian state, an economic basket case, worthy of attention only for its nuclear weapons – may seem a surprise to many. </p><p>However, as veteran Korea observer, Keith Bennett and Radhika Desai discuss, neither the destination nor the timing should surprise anyone with a sense of the intertwined histories of the Chinese and Korean revolutions (not to mention the Soviet) and the continuing cooperation between the two countries, founded on socialist solidarity. Nor should it surprise them that, amid the chaos unleashed on the world by a declining West, China and North Korea are quietly renewing their relations for a new phase of history, and their common history. </p><p>Keith and Radhika discuss the socialist foundations of one of the most enduring international relationships of the modern era, the myths Western journalists and scholars perpetuate about North Korea, and the unexpected twist the matter of Korean reunification has taken.</p>
