Looking into the Abyss: ZioAmerica, Iran...

SINA RAHMANI (@URORIENTALIST)
About this episode

**Adnan invited me on his show to record on the latest development. We went for so long, I was eventually out of words!*

Adnan convenes an emergency panel to discuss and analyze the recent Israeli-US attack on Iran, its implications for Iran, the region and the world. Prof. David Yaghoubian (CSU-San Bernardino) and Sina Rahmani (East is a Podcast) share their insights and reflections along with passionate and deeply committed analysis about the place of Iran as the frontline state fighting for a sovereign future against Western imperial hegemony.
