https://media.blubrry.com/counterspin/content.blubrry.com/counterspin/CounterSpin260313.mp3 Right-click here to download this episode (“Save link as…”). New York Times (3/10/26) This week on CounterSpin: House Foreign Affairs Committee chair Brian Mast declared of Iran: “This murderous regime has posed an imminent threat against every American both at home and abroad for the last 47 years”—leading many at home and abroad to reach for their dictionaries. The Trump White House's war on Iran is unpopular in the US: “Even the highest level of public support for this conflict falls far lower than that at the start of most other conflicts, including World War II, the Korean War and the Iraq War,” reports the New York Times. That may have something to do with the parade of rationales offered; Popular Information has a roundup of the 17 different reasons the Trump regime has given to date for why we went to war. All of it normalized by corporate media that allow recorded history to be put up for debate, that pretend we haven't seen what we've seen, leaving today's warmongers free to draw up a historical narrative, or several, that serve their present purpose. As we record on March 12, some 251 groups have sent a letter to Congress demanding they vote against any additional funding for the unconstitutional war, now costing an estimated $1 billion a day. Signers included Public Citizen, the ACLU, Greenpeace, J Street, Jewish Voice for Peace and National Nurses United. A supplemental worth $50 billion, the letter notes, would be enough to restore food assistance for 4 million Americans, establish universal pre-K education and pay for the annual construction of more than 100,000 units of housing. CounterSpin has been tracking US news media failings, omissions and propagandizing on Iran for decades. We revisit some of that conversation this week, hearing from Cyrus Safdari (2009), Vijay Prashad (2012), Murtaza Hussain (2017) and Trita Parsi (2018).

James and Al look at the Senate run-off in Texas, the blue shift in the Hispanic vote, the effects of redistricting in California, and MAGA's attempt at voter suppression under the SAVE Act. Then, they welcome Dr. Trita Parsi for a deep dive into U.S.-Iran relations, exploring Iran's historical significance, how war will change the region, their ability to repel an invasion, and game out the ways the conflict might end.  Then, James sits down with Stephen A. Smith to discuss how to win over young men, the power of authenticity, making predictions in sports and politics, and insights from his legendary career. Email your questions to James and Al at politicswarroom@gmail.com or tweet them to @politicon.  Make sure to include your city– we love to hear where you're from!

Tehran has carried out more attacks on Gulf states despite an apology by the president to Iran's neighbours. Civilian targets have been hit, including airports and vital infrastructure. Who's in control in Iran and how will Gulf states react as the attacks continue? In this episode: John Brennan, Former Director, Central Intelligence Agency under the Obama administration. Bader Al-Saif, Professor, Kuwait University. Trita Parsi, Executive Vice President, Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft. Host: James Bays Connect with us: @AJEPodcasts on X, Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube

08:00 — Trita Parsi is the co-founder and executive vice president of the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft 20:00 — Ussama Makdisi is Professor of History and Chancellor's Chair at the University of California Berkeley. He is the author of Age of Coexistence: The Ecumenical Frame and the Making of the Modern Arab World 33:00 — Parker Molloy is author of The Present Age newsletter; previously editor-at-large at Media Matters for America, writing about the role right-wing media played in the rise of Donald Trump The post US and Israel's War on Iran and Lebanon, Dynamics in the Gulf States; Plus, How is MAGA Reacting to the War? appeared first on KPFA.

Iran's strategy isn't to defeat the US militarily. Trita Parsi argues that it's to make the cost high enough, fast enough, to collapse domestic support before Iran loses. With MAGA turning against the war, oil markets destabilizing, and both parties alarmed by talk of ground troops, Trump urgently needs a face-saving exit. Plus, Parsi believes that Iran's revolutionary system was built to withstand exactly this kind of pressure. Trita Parsi is the co-founder and Executive Vice President of the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft, co-founder and former president of the National Iranian American Council, and author of four books on US foreign policy in the Middle East.  In this episode: 01:19 Succession After Assassination 03:13 Army vs IRGC Dynamics 10:55 Iran Strategy and US Politics 15:44 Why No Uprising 22:42 Gulf States Security Fallout 25:43 Saudi Shift After Oct 7 30:03 MAGA Backlash and Exit Ramps 33:32 Why Trump Went In 39:56 One Decision to Watch Hosted by Sir Richard Dearlove (former MI6 Chief) and guest co-host Rosanna Lockwood (International Journalist) Learn more about your ad choices.

If the Trump administration adopts Israel's “red lines” in the negotiations with Iran, the talks are doomed, argues Trita Parsi, executive vice president of the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft. Parsi tells host Steve Clemons that Iran is willing to reach a deal on its nuclear programme, as it did in 2015 with then-President Barack Obama. But a lot depends on “whether the US is willing to push back against Israel or not”. Israeli officials were “very upset” that the United States has so far chosen diplomacy over war, and demand that the US add new issues – especially Iran's ballistic missiles – to the agenda.

This episode was recorded on Jan 21, 2026.Wasay Mir hosts a conversation with Trita Parsi, Executive Vice President of the Quincy Institute and one of the most influential voices on US-Iran relations in Washington.A Johns Hopkins SAIS PhD and author of four books on American foreign policy in the Middle East, Parsi unpacks Iran's unfolding domestic crisis in January 2026. Seven months after devastating strikes on Iran's nuclear facilities, mass protests have erupted amid economic collapse and an unprecedented regime crackdown.Together, they explore whether this uprising differs from past movements like the Green Revolution or Mahsa Amini protests, what the collapse of Iran's regional proxy network means for the regime's survival, and whether Gulf states actually want a weakened Iran or fear what comes after.Parsi's personal history as the son of an outspoken academic who faced repression under both the Shah and Ayatollah Khomeini provides unique insight into Iranian authoritarianism.Produced by the Phillip Merrill Center for Strategic Studies at Johns Hopkins SAIS.Researched and hosted by Wasay Mir; edited by Vishal Gogusetti

This episode features a full-length debate between Shadi Hamid and Trita Parsi —two thinkers who fundamentally disagree about the role of American power in the world. Released jointly with The Disagreement podcast and hosted by Alex Grodd, the conversation reflects a shared Wisdom of Crowds ethos — one that treats disagreement not as a failure of understanding, but as a tool for thinking more clearly about first principles. Rather than trading talking points, Hamid and Parsi engage each other's strongest arguments in a sustained, good-faith exchange.Shadi draws on themes from The Case for American Power to defend a position that has fallen out of favor across much of the political spectrum: that American power, when used with moral purpose, can still play a necessary role in reducing global suffering. His argument is aimed in part at a disillusioned left that has come to see U.S. power primarily as a source of harm rather than a potential instrument of humanitarian good. Against this, Trita — one of the most incisive critics of American interventionism — offers a sustained challenge, grounded in historical failures, unintended consequences, and the limits of even well-intentioned power.Does the world need the United States to act, and if so, when — and at what cost? How should past disasters constrain present ambitions? And if American power is curtailed, what realistic alternatives exist, and who bears responsibility when things go wrong? This debate doesn't resolve those questions — but it models what it looks like to take them seriously, in conversation with someone who sees the world very differently.Required Reading/ Listening: * The Disagreement podcast. * Shadi Hamid, The Case for American Power.

Today we're trying something new on the show –  it's a different kind of book review, where we have a healthy disagreement around the core arguments made in a recently released book. The book is The Case for American Power by Shadi Hamid, a columnist for the Washington Post and host of the Wisdom of Crowds podcast. It's a fascinating read – Shadi makes a case that you don't hear very often: that America should be using its power for moral and humanitarian ends. It's a broad-based appeal but also a specific appeal to those on the left who have become deeply skeptical and disillusioned with American power. So to offer a critique we have brought on someone who is deeply skeptical of American power. Trita Parsi is an Iranian-Swedish-American political scientist, author, and foreign policy expert and is currently the Executive Vice President of the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft. It's a thought-provoking conversation and serves as an excellent follow-up to Shadi's previous appearance on our show in April 2024, when he discussed American Power and the role that the United States should be playing on the global stage. The Questions: Does the world need America to use its power to decrease global strife? To what extent and in which circumstances? How do we reconcile past American foreign policy failures with a continued interventionist stance? What are the alternatives to American Power and what gives us reason to believe? The Guests Shadi Hamid is the host of the Wisdom of Crowds podcast, a columnist at The Washington Post, and a senior fellow at Georgetown University's Center for Muslim-Christian Understanding. Previously, he was a longtime senior fellow at the Brookings Institution and a contributing writer at The Atlantic. Hamid is the author of several books, including The Problem of Democracy and Islamic Exceptionalism: How the Struggle Over Islam is Reshaping the World. Trita Parsi is the 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, with a particular focus on Iran and Israel. He has been named by the Washingtonian Magazine as one of the 25 most influential voices on foreign policy in Washington DC for five years in a row since 2021.

Tucker Carlson has ignited a fierce public clash with conservative commentator Mark Levin over U.S. policy toward Iran. Responsible Statecraft reports that Carlson posted a scathing ten-paragraph essay on X this week, accusing Levin of lobbying the White House for regime change and war after meeting with Trump officials. Carlson dismissed claims of Iran being weeks from a nuclear bomb as lies repeated since the 1990s, warning that demands for zero uranium enrichment would force a conflict many Americans would die in. The post, now over 5.4 million views strong, drew support from figures like Democratic Congressman Ro Khanna, former Rep. Matt Gaetz, Quincy Institute's Trita Parsi, and American Conservative editor Andrew Day, who all echoed Carlson's antiwar stance amid fragile Trump administration talks.His media ventures continue to thrive, with CNN Business noting that venture capital firm 1789 Capital, where Donald Trump Jr. recently partnered, invests in Carlson's company alongside other conservative projects. This ties into broader scrutiny, as Democratic senators like Elizabeth Warren raised alarms over Pentagon contracts and loans worth hundreds of millions to 1789-backed firms, questioning potential conflicts.A new book, Hated by All the Right People by New Yorker writer Jason Zengerle, released January 27, traces Carlson's evolution from mainstream conservative to a dominant right-wing voice, highlighting his post-Fox shift further right. Fresh Air and Jewish Insider also spotlighted the book for showing how Trump's rise revived and radicalized his career.Carlson recently interviewed economist Peter Schiff, arguing Bitcoin or Tether could replace the weakening U.S. dollar as the global reserve currency, though Schiff called crypto a complete waste beyond speculation. He's also slated to speak at Saudi Arabia's Real Estate Future Forum alongside Hillary Clinton and John Kerry. Meanwhile, Bishop Barron publicly corrected Carlson's errant views on Catholicism in a January 27 workshop video.These moves underscore Carlson's growing sway in steering MAGA away from neoconservative wars while fueling debates on his influence in Trump's world.Thanks for listening to the Tucker Carlson News Tracker podcast—please subscribe for more updates.

This includes one of the most repressive autocrats in the world, Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman, who ordered the grisly murder of dissident journalist Jamal Khashoggi, according to U.S. intelligence. Bin Salman was given the red carpet treatment by the Trump administration this week, as he sought defense and economic agreements to burnish his brand as a pragmatic modernizer rather than a reckless monarch. In this episode, Trita Parsi of the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft says the U.S. must engage with the Saudis, but Washington should steer clear of agreeing to a defense pact with the kingdom.

Donald Trump claims he wants to be the peace president and has even lobbied for a NobelPeace Prize. But his foreign policy has been wildly contradictory. While the United States isclearly retrenching from many parts of the world, violence against hemispheric neighbors isincreasing. I talked to Trita Parsi, co-founder and executive vice president of the QuincyInstitute for Responsible Statecraft, for a wide-ranging discussion on why American hegemonyis declining but also why the push for retrenchment hasn't gone far enough.Our Sponsors:* Check out Avocado Green Mattress: https://avocadogreenmattress.com* Check out BetterHelp: https://betterhelp.com/THENATIONAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
