Back to EpisodesEpisode 117: All the Shah's Men
Description
We keep coming back to the same places, don't we? History may not repeat, but it sure does rhyme.
Stephen Kinzer's book All The Shah's Men was published in 2003 and then updated and republished in 2008. The update included "The Folly of Attacking Iran" essay.
So why are we there again? Is it, as Whitney Webb suggested, insider trading combined with a distraction from mass surveillance?
Housekeeping items:
➡️ I have been shadowbanned. If you enjoy this podcast or any of my other work, please share it.
➡️ If you're a publicist, please be advised that we discuss conspiracy theories here. (Duh.) Don't pitch someone who isn't interested and/or acts like a flake.
