Washington’s Arab Puppets: Their Sound And Fury Signify Nothing

In this episode of Reason2Resist, Dimitri Lascaris speaks with associate professor at the Department of American Studies, University of Tehran Dr. Foad Izadi, about Israel’s recent attack on Qatar. Until now, the Western-backed Arab regimes have done almost nothing to restrain Israel’s aggression throughout the region of West Asia. On the contrary, they have actively facilitated many of Israel’s crimes. After exploring the question of whether Trump’s Arab vassals will finally respond to Israeli aggression, Lascaris and Dr. Izadi discussed reports that the Iranian government will allow the IAEA to resume nuclear inspections in the country. They also discussed the threat of ‘snap-back’ sanctions on Iran, Iran’s new missile capabilities, and the possibility that Iran’s military will carry out a pre-emptive strike against the Israel.
