EP:64 - The Permanent Crisis
Summary
Darryl Cooper and Scott Horton discuss the recent plane hijacking attempt in Israel, debating whether it was a genuine terrorist act or a false flag orchestrated by Netanyahu. They analyze the US withdrawal from Iraq, arguing that losing the war against Iran is a necessary step to force America to reckon with its military limitations. The hosts also cover the resurgent civil war in Ethiopia, Russian threats regarding the Kaliningrad corridor, and the potential for a new strike on Cuba.
