Podcasts about Kamran

Episode 459 of Hidden Forces is the twelfth episode in the Hundred Year Pivot podcast series. In it, Demetri Kofinas and Grant Williams speak with Kamran Bokhari, a strategic forecaster and geopolitical analyst who specializes on the Middle Eastern and Eurasia, about Iran's nationwide protests, what they reveal about the power and stability of the Iranian regime, and what the state of Iranian affairs portends for Iran's future, the region's geopolitics, and the strategic considerations and objectives of the United States. The conversation's opening hour traces Iran's modern formation—beginning in the early 1900s with the Constitutional Revolution, moving through the 1953 coup and the Shah's rule, and culminating in the 1979 Islamic Revolution and its aftermath. Kamran walks the audience through the evolution of Iran's dual military structure, explaining the critical distinction between the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and the regular armed forces (Artesh), and how the IRGC grew from an ideological militia into an oversized parallel state controlling everything from telecommunications to Iran's nuclear program, while becoming increasingly corrupt and internally divided. The second hour is devoted to analyzing the current protests engulfing Iran, how they differ from previous uprisings, and the implications for a severely weakened IRGC following Israel's dismantling of its proxy network, the relentless targeting of its commanders, and its failure to secure the safety of its own citizens from Israeli reprisals. They explore the regime's internal factionalization, the role of the merchant class in these protests, the potential pathways forward—from managed regime decay to military intervention to outright chaos—and the cascading effects that Iran's instability could have on its neighbors, from Turkey and Azerbaijan to Iraq, Afghanistan, and beyond.

X has been firmly in the firing line after its Grok AI tool was used to create sexualised images of women and children. Elon Musk's company could face a fine of up to 10% of its global earnings by internet regulator Ofcom, or a ban in the UK. He denies that the AI has done anything illegal and says users are responsible for the images they create. How can we regulate AI? Nish and Coco speak to Rutger Bregman, historian and author who called out billionaires at Davos. He argues Big Tech should be treated like Big Tobacco, and gives his take on Iran, as thousands of protestors take to the streets, and what a radical policy platform looks like for the UK Left today. Plus - what on earth is UKIP proposing as a terrifying rebrand?  *Update on Palestinian Hunger Strikers*: On 14th Jan Heba, Kamran, and Lewie collectively paused their hunger strike. They made British history, lasting 73 days.

Het plan om de fatbike uit het Vondelpark te weren van wethouder Melanie van der Horst heeft voor enige controverse gezorgd. Bij1 is namelijk bang voor etnisch profileren en trok een vergelijking met de Jodenvervolging in de Tweede Wereldoorlog. Kamran Ullah vindt die vergelijking krankzinnig. In een nieuwe aflevering van de Krant van Kamran merkt de hoofdredacteur van De Telegraaf op dat politici die zulke vergelijkingen maken thuishoren in een kliniek en niet in de politiek. Verder: verstoring bij Chanoeka-concert laat andermaal zien wie de dienst uitmaakt.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In een nieuwe aflevering van de Krant van Kamran blikt de hoofdredacteur van De Telegraaf terug op de afgelopen nieuwsweek. Het gedoe rond het Songfestival is nog niet gaan liggen, de winnaar van vorig jaar Nemo stuurt zijn prijs terug. Of hij ook niet gaat optreden is nog niet duidelijk. Verder: McDonald's haalt AI-reclame offline nadat er heel veel kritiek kwam, veel kerstreclames buigen voor wokisme en GroenLinks/PvdA wordt buiten spel gezet in formatie.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In een nieuwe aflevering van de Krant van Kamran blikt hoofdredacteur Kamran Ullah terug op een veelbewogen nieuwsweek. De rechtszaak rond Marco Borsato zorgde voor veel hectiek, voornamelijk door de toegestroomde journalisten en cameraploegen. Was er geen andere mogelijkheid om de zanger te spreken? En waarom doen alle media-entiteiten mee aan deze scrum? Verder: Nederland doet niet mee aan het Eurovisie Songfestival, en dat is volgens de hoofdredacteur van De Telegraaf pure 'Hilversumse hypocrisie'. En: het schrijven over Ozempic zorgt voor veel boetes, hoe dat zit hoor je in deze podcast. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In de Krant van Kamran blikt hoofdredacteur Kamran Ullah terug op de afgelopen nieuwsweek. Een basisschool in Utrecht, waar veel kinderen met een islamitische en Surinaamse achtergrond op zitten, stopt met het vieren van Sinterklaas omdat het ‘voor onrust zorgt'. Het stemt Ullah boos en verdrietig, volgens hem zorgt deze beslissing alleen maar voor segregatie en polarisatie. BnnVara schrapt diverse programma's vanwege bezuinigingen. ,,Een zeer opzichtige lobby,'' noemt de hoofdredacteur deze beslissing, aangezien volgende week het mediadebat in de Tweede Kamer plaatsvindt. Verder: Wopke Hoekstra wil het roer wat betreft de klimaattop omgooien en de NOS gaat van X af, maar blijft op Bluesky, waarmee de nieuwsorganisatie volgens Ullah een verkeerd signaal afgeeft.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Lale Gül heeft laten weten dat haar beveiliging op korte termijn wordt stopgezet. De Nationaal Coördinator Terrorismebestrijding en Veiligheid (NCTV) heeft de columnist en schrijver ingelicht dat online-dreigementen, zoals Gül geregeld krijgt, niet serieus hoeven worden genomen. Gül geeft aan dat ze de NCTV verantwoordelijkheid houdt als haar iets overkomt. Voor Kamran Ullah, hoofdredacteur van De Telegraaf, is er vooral een vrees dat "één van de meest islam-kritische stemmen nu de mond wordt gesnoerd." Gül is ook columnist bij De Telegraaf, waardoor Ullah maar weinig over de situatie kan zeggen. "Helaas zijn er te veel situaties waarbij we hiermee te maken krijgen", zegt Ullah.

De TU Delft ziet De Telegraaf niet als een betrouwbare bron voor scriptiestudenten. „Waar baseer je het op dat onze journalistiek niet deugt?", vraagt hoofdredacteur Kamran Ullah zich hardop af in een nieuwe aflevering van De Krant van Kamran. Ullah gaat ook in op wat deze stellinginame doet met het publieke debat en de kijk op journalisten van De Telegraaf. Verder: Hans Wijers neemt afstand van zijn rol als formateur na het uitlekken van appjes, hoe sprong de journalistiek hier mee om? En lieten kranten zich niet te veel leiden door scoringsdrift? En: de Tweede Kamer heeft een nieuwe voorzitter die een opvallende gelijkenis heeft met Rob Jetten. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In De Krant van Kamran blikt hoofdredacteur Kamran Ullah terug op de afgelopen nieuwsweek. De BBC-top is afgetreden vanwege een documentaire over Donald Trump, die zo is gemonteerd dat het lijkt alsof de Amerikaanse president de rellen op 6 januari 2021 aanmoedigde. Ullah verbaast zich over hoe journalisten in Nederland vergoelijkend praten over dit debacle en er zelfs wordt opgeroepen tot hypocrisie in de journalistiek.

In een nieuwe aflevering van De Krant van Kamran verbaast Kamran Ullah zich over de manier waarop JA21 in het maatschappelijke debat en door de media wordt weggezet. Volgens de hoofdredacteur van De Telegraaf moeten mensen die de partij van Joost Eerdmans wegzetten als extreemrechts, het partijprogramma doornemen en dan hun conclusies trekken.

In Episode 446 of Hidden Forces, Demetri Kofinas speaks with geopolitical analyst and forecaster Kamran Bokhari about Trump's 20-point Gaza peace plan and the new security order taking shape in the Middle East. Kamran first appeared on Hidden Forces in the days following the October 7th attacks to discuss the wider war unfolding between the U.S., Israel, and Iran, and how Hamas's attacks could serve as a catalyst for the remaking of the modern Middle East. In his subsequent appearances, he has provided critical context for understanding U.S., Israeli, and Iranian strategic aims and limitations, as well as the interests and constraints of other states in the region, including Saudi Arabia, Syria, and Turkey. For all intents and purposes, Israel has won its war against the Islamic Republic of Iran. It has decimated both its conventional and unconventional forces and revealed to its proxies, affiliates, and supporters across the region—and even to its own people—that Iran is a weak and tottering power. With the initiation of Trump's 20-point Gaza peace plan and the cessation of hostilities in the Gaza Strip, we may be witnessing the emergence of a new security order in the Middle East—one that relies more on regional stakeholders, allowing the United States to reduce its direct exposure and the commitment of U.S. forces while still maintaining influence over regional politics. Kamran and Demetri spend the first hour of their conversation recapping the Middle East's transformation over the last two years. They revisit Israel's systematic campaign against Hezbollah's leadership, the subsequent collapse of the Assad regime, and the consequences of the U.S.'s strategic strikes on Iran's known nuclear facilities. They also discuss the diplomatic fallout from Israel's recent attacks in Qatar, Prime Minister Netanyahu's subsequent apology call from the White House, and Washington's push for an international stabilization force in Gaza led by regional partners. The second hour turns to what a new regional security architecture could look like and how U.S. strategy is shifting from direct management to burden-sharing among regional powers such as Turkey, Saudi Arabia, and Israel. They explore the practical implications of this emerging arrangement for Gaza—including discussions about an Arab-Muslim stabilization force, governance over the Palestinian territories, and a long reconstruction financed by Gulf and international donors—while setting realistic expectations for the creation of an independent Palestinian political entity over the next decade. They conclude by assessing which countries stand to gain the most from Iran's retreat and the decimation of its proxies, closing with a frank discussion about America's polarized media ecosystem and the growing anti-Israel and antisemitic sentiments being expressed on both the American left and right.

In his 2009 book, The Next 100 Years, GPF Chairman George Friedman forecasted that Turkey would become the major power in the Middle East. As Trump draws down on US involvement abroad, Putin gets bogged down in Russia, and Israel is distracted in Gaza, Turkey is spying opportunities. While Turkey's dominance has been on the rise despite its own internal instability, Saudi Arabia on the other side of the region has been giving it a run for its money. In this week's episode of Talking Geopolitics, host Christian Smith is joined by GPF contributor Kamran Bokhari to discuss all this as well as the latest developments out of Israel following Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's public apology to Qatar. Visit www.geopoliticalfutures.com for world-class geopolitical analysis and discussion. There you'll also find George's new series on the 2020s and Its Historic Shift, including his updated forecast for Poland, Turkey and Japan.

Residency is one of the most challenging, and defining, stages of becoming a doctor. In this episode, we talk with Dr. Kamran Tate, a second-year internal medicine resident, to hear what life is really like on the frontlines of medicine. From the steep learning curve of day one to balancing 12-hour shifts, navigating the ICU, and relying on the wisdom of nurses and mentors, Dr. Tate shares the unfiltered reality behind the white coat. We also dive into the mindset it takes to survive residency , from stoicism and mindfulness to finding humor in the chaos. Dr. Tate opens up about social media as a creative outlet, the misconceptions people have about doctors, and how medicine has shaped his outlook on life. Whether you're a medical student, considering healthcare, or just curious about the human side of medicine, this conversation offers insight, honesty, and inspiration.Check out Dr. Tate on social media: https://linktr.ee/Doctor_Kam

In this episode, Uzair Younus sits down with Kamran Bokhari to unpack the implications of the landmark Mutual Defence Agreement recently signed between Saudi Arabia and Pakistan. With both nations pledging that “any aggression against either country shall be considered an aggression against both,” the agreement marks a significant moment in bilateral military cooperation. Uzair and Kamran explore what motivated this pact, including the evolving regional security dynamics—particularly rising tensions from recent events in the Gulf—and what this means for both countries' sovereignty, deterrence capabilities, and diplomatic posturing.

From sleight of hand to smart bets, this one's a ride.

GPF contributor Kamran Bokhari recently wrote that massive geopolitical change has come to the Middle East in the form of the attack on Gaza, a weakening of Iran, paralyzing of Hezbollah, the overthrow of the Assad regime in Syria and much more. Considering all these developments and the way in which Israel's actions are driving events in the region, Dr. Bokhari was back on the Club's Podcast+ with host Christian Smith to discuss Israel's wider strategy and what he predicts for the future. Recorded Thursday, September 11, 2025. This clip is part of a full-length episode available to our ClubGPF members. To find out more about ClubGPF, go to www.geopoliticalfutures.com/joinclubgpf.

No incense required. No chanting in Sanskrit you don't understand. Just fierce mental clarity, emotional discipline, and the quiet, sovereign confidence of someone who knows who they are and what hill they'd die on.Each episode arms you with a principle or story, then translates it into daily, actionable strategy—whether you're building a business, navigating love, or fighting your own inner chaos.Because true strength isn't found in the gym or the boardroom.

In Episode 424 of Hidden Forces, Demetri Kofinas speaks with Kamran Bokhari, Senior Director at the New Lines Institute for Strategy & Policy, who has served in the U.S. State Department and as a Senior Consultant with the World Bank. Bokhari first appeared on the podcast shortly after the October 7th attacks to discuss the violence ignited by Hamas, the nature and scope of Iranian involvement, and how various regional actors exploited the growing disorder to their advantage, as the Biden administration struggled to stabilize a region on the brink of another major war. In subsequent appearances, Bokhari has provided the Hidden Forces audience with critical context for understanding U.S.-Israeli and Iranian strategic aims and limitations, the interests and constraints of other regional states (including Saudi Arabia and Turkey), how the events in the Middle East are perceived in Beijing and Moscow, and how the situation may evolve from here. The broader conflict with Iran, which has consistently framed these discussions, has now directly involved the United States following its recent deployment of fourteen 30,000-pound bombs targeting three Iranian nuclear sites: the Fordow Uranium Enrichment Plant, the nuclear facility in Natanz, and the Isfahan Nuclear Technology Center. What happens next—and whether the White House's actions will ultimately prove beneficial to America's long-term strategic objectives—forms the central focus of this two-hour conversation. In the first hour, Bokhari and Kofinas update listeners on recent developments, assessing the initial successes and failures of U.S. and Israeli strategic planners, the Iranian response, immediate risks to the United States and its allies, and how this war is likely to reshape the economic and security order of the Middle East over the next five years. In the second hour, Demetri and Kamran widen their aperture to examine how the conflict will affect the economic and military imperatives of the United States and China, along with their respective alliances and trading networks. They also discuss the potential economic repercussions and secondary impacts resulting from America's attack on Iran. The episode concludes with an examination of best- and worst-case scenarios, ranging from a new investment supercycle in the Middle East to the deployment of battlefield nuclear weapons and heightened risks of international terrorism in the United States and Europe.

Kamran Bokhari answers the bat signal to join Jacob Shapiro for a wide-ranging conversation on the spike in India-Pakistan tensions following the Kashmir attack - and why it's not just business as usual. They unpack the strategic logic (or lack thereof) behind Pakistan's moves, India's dilemma over deterrence, and the escalating risk of regional miscalculation. They also dig into the broader Middle East: Iran's negotiations, Houthi missiles, and whether the U.S. is quietly brokering a regional reset. Kamran sees threads tying it all together; We're still trying to figure out if that's optimism or a warning.
