US / Iranian tensions are rising. The latter, an ancient country with a rich and proud history. Patrick Hiller is VP of the Board of Directors at the IPRA Foundation (International Peace Research Association Foundation). If he has his way, Donald Trump will follow his own intuition and seek out a different route to peace with Iran. A stark contrast to his war hungry cabinet members. ie: John R. Bolton. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/iantrottier/support

The United States has been waging an economic war against Iran ever since the Iranian Revolution overthrew the US-backed brutal shah in 1979, but that war has escalated recently with the US-imposed oil embargo. Oil is a major source of revenue for Iran. Add to that the US pulling out of the nuclear agreement, the attacks on oil tankers in the Strait of Hormuz and Iran shooting down a US drone, and we are extremely close to a hot war that would destabilize the entire Middle East. We speak with Patrick Hiller, a conflict resolution expert who traveled to Iran with us earlier this year, about just how dangerous the current situation is, what the potential consequences are and what we can do to reconcile the hostilities.
