Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. got some hard pushback from CNN anchor Dana Bash during a contentious 21-minute interview on “State of Union." Bash pressed him on his vaccine skepticism. The conversation turned heated as Bash challenged Kennedy's claims about COVID-19 vaccines and their impact on children, specifically asking whether he could point to credible research demonstrating that the vaccine “did more harm than good.” Guests today include: Trita Parsi. He is an expert on foreign policy, including Iran, and serves as the Executive Vice President of the Quincy Institute. https://www.tritaparsi.com https://tritaparsi.substack.com David Shuster is an Emmy award winning news anchor.

Subscribe now to listen to the entire 16-minute episode (or preview 5 minutes). President Trump seems helpless. All the bombs and missiles he flings at Iran cannot solve his problems — problems he created by attacking Iran on the magical belief that the Islamic regime would crumble and be replaced by people whom Trump could control. It was a fantasy, and now, as the war enters its sixth month, Iran maintains a stranglehold on the Strait of Hormuz. The situation is in limbo, floating somewhere between war and peace — with little hope that a new nuclear accord with Iran is possible.

He is an expert on US-Iranian relations, Iranian foreign policy, and the geopolitics of the Middle East.

"The Pentagon updated its official war casualty database over the weekend, adding more than 140 wounded service members. The Defense Casualty Analysis System (DCAS) also introduced a new casualty category labeled “Overseas Operations” for personnel killed and wounded “starting July 7”.According to the updated database, the official toll for the earlier phase of the US-Iran war, known as Operation Epic Fury, now stands at 14 service members killed and more than 400 wounded in action."Trita Parsi and Sarah Kendior will join us to discuss the top stories of the week.Follow Trita Parsi:https://x.com/tparsihttps://www.tritaparsi.com/https://tritaparsi.substack.com/Follow Sarah Kendzior, Author, scholar and journalist:http://www.sarahkendziorbooks.com/https://sarahkendzior.substack.com/The Mark Thompson Show 7/27/26Patreon subscribers are the backbone of the show!

جورج بوش پدر شاید یکی از آمادهترین آدمهایی بود که وارد کاخ سفید شد: خلبان جنگ جهانی دوم، سفیر آمریکا در سازمان ملل، نماینده آمریکا در چین، رئیس سیا و معاون ریگان.در دورهی جورج بوش پدر، دیوار برلین فرو ریخت، شوروی از هم پاشید، جنگ سرد تمام شد و آمریکا در جنگ خلیج فارس پیروز شد. محبوبیتش حتی به عددی عجیب رسید؛ نزدیک به ۹۰ درصد.اما با همهی اینها، فقط یک دوره رئیسجمهور ماند.چرا؟ چون آمریکا بعد از پایان جنگ سرد دیگر فقط مدیر بحران نمیخواست. دنبال کسی بود که آینده را برایش تعریف کند. بوش پدر سیاستمداری کاربلد بود، اما کاریزمای کلینتون را نداشت. مدیر بود، اما برند نداشت.در ادامهی پلیلیست رئیسجمهورهای آمریکا، این بار سراغ جورج هربرت واکر بوش رفتیم؛ رئیسجمهوری که جهان را از جنگ سرد عبور داد، اما خودش از تغییر زمانه جا ماند. متن: بهجت بندری، علی بندری، با راهنمایی آرشام رئیسینژاد | ویدیو و صدا: نیما خالدیکیابرای دیدن ویدیوی این اپیزود اگر ایران هستید ویپیان بزنید و روی لینک زیر کلیک کنیدیوتیوب بیپلاسکانال تلگرام بیپلاسمنابع و عنوانهایی برای کنجکاوی بیشترWar in a Time of Peace: Bush, Clinton, and the Generals - David HalberstamDestiny and Power: The American Odyssey of George Herbert Walker Bush - John MeachamThe Commanders - Bob WoodwardRevisiting the George H.

On Wednesday morning, U.S. President Donald Trump threatened to bomb one Iranian bridge or powerplant every time a ship passing through the Strait of Hormuz gets shot at. It's yet more evidence that the ceasefire between the U.S. and Iran is over, after twelve days of renewed military escalation.As the conflict wades into this next phase, we look at how things fell apart, the damage taken on both sides, and whether we're headed into endless war. Trita Parsi joins us. He is the executive vice president of the Quincy Institute and the author of several books about the U.S and Iran, including Treacherous Alliance: The Secret Dealings of Israel, Iran, and the United States.For transcripts of Front Burner, please visit: https://www.cbc.ca/radio/frontburner/transcripts
Darren is back at the mic after a month away and, again, back on the Iran/Hormuz story. The deal he spent an hour analysing in June is dead inside three weeks, the two sides are fighting again, American soldiers are dying, important infrastructure has been destroyed across the region, and a fresh ceasefire proposal is circulating even as Washington weighs a much larger campaign alongside Israel. This episode is his effort to describe the machinery that keeps generating these crises, with his analysis intended to hold up whether there's a ceasefire or a major escalation by the time you listen. Darren starts with the collapse of the June memorandum and why the agreement that used the word "permanent" turned out to be the shortest-lived of the lot. He then works through what Tehran believes it saw in the three weeks after signing, a short theory of how wars stay limited and how those limits break, and the idea that sits at the centre of the episode: that this is no longer a war about what the two sides don't know, but about their inability to make any promise the other has reason to believe. From there it's the oil clock — how close the market is running to empty, and why the cushions that saved us the first time may not be there again. Then he moves to the the risk that Iran's apparent victory is quietly turning into a trap, what a durable settlement over the Strait of Hormuz might actually look like, and why none of it touches the nuclear question that started the war. The episode closes well beyond Iran, with a more general thought about a world economy that has become cheap to disrupt, slow to reassure, and which no government can any longer credibly promise not to weaponise. Australia in the World is written, hosted, and produced by Darren Lim, with research and editing by Hannah Nelson and theme music composed by Rory Stenning.

Political analyst Trita Parsi examines the deep contradictions at the heart of contemporary US foreign policy, tracing the consequences of decades of military intervention from Iraq and Syria to Iran. The discussion explores how the US invasion of Iraq helped create the conditions for the rise of ISIS, the rapid normalisation of Syria's new leadership despite its origins in Al-Qaeda-linked movements, and the broader erosion of public trust in mainstream media coverage of global conflicts. Parsi argues that sanctions on countries such as Iran and Syria overwhelmingly punish civilian populations while failing to achieve their stated political objectives. He also analyses the influence of the military-industrial complex on Washington's decision-making, explaining how economic and political incentives perpetuate a cycle of intervention even as public support for endless wars declines. The conversation turns to Iran, where Parsi challenges widely circulated narratives about protests, political unrest and regime change, arguing that foreign interference and media distortions have often obscured a more complex reality. Throughout the interview, broader questions emerge about empire, propaganda, media credibility and the limits of military power in shaping political outcomes. The result is a wide-ranging examination of how interventionist policies have reshaped the Middle East, why many official narratives are increasingly being questioned and what a more restrained and realistic approach to international relations might look like in an era marked by geopolitical instability and declining confidence in traditional institutions.

The Quincy Institute and Foundation for Middle East Peace (FMEP) co-hosted this webinar that examined how the war on Iran — which was conducted by the Americans and Israelis with an unprecedented degree of coordination — may accelerate the divergence of American and Israeli policy conduct in the Middle East. As the costs continue to accumulate for the Americans, and the Israelis continue to dig in, the question of whether a policy break which corresponds to each state's different interests has gained new importance. And if that break ultimately develops, how will the process of extricating Israeli policy-making from Washington unfold? This webinar/podcast features Trita Parsi (Quincy Institute), Barbara Slavin (Stimson Center), Lara Friedman (FMEP), and was moderated by FMEP Fellow Ahmed Moor. Trita Parsi is co-founder and executive vice president of the Quincy Institute. He is an award-winning author and the 2010 recipient of the Grawemeyer Award for Ideas Improving World Order. He is an expert on US-Iranian relations, Iranian foreign policy, and the geopolitics of the Middle East. He has authored four books on US foreign policy in the Middle East. Barbara Slavin is a distinguished fellow at the Stimson Center and a lecturer in international affairs at GWU. Prior to joining Stimson, she founded and directed the Future of Iran Initiative at the Atlantic Council and led a bi-partisan task force on Iran. She is the author of Bitter Friends, Bosom Enemies: Iran, the US and the Twisted Path to Confrontation (2007) Lara Friedman is the president of the Foundation for Middle East Peace. Previously, she was the Director of Policy and Government Relations at Americans for Peace Now, and before that she was a U.S. Foreign Service Officer, serving in Jerusalem, Washington, Tunis, and Beirut. Lara is a leading authority on U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East. Ahmed Moor is a writer and fellow at the Foundation for Middle East Peace.
