Has rapidly and justifiably established itself as an authoritative resource exploring the US empire and its collapse. Highly recommend.
Dylan Saba has an incredible way with words that perfectly describes the issue at hand. Excellent reporting and dissection of key issues in the struggle for not only Palestinian liberation but freedom for all humans. Bravo!
We are in enough trouble with Israeli expansionism without the need to entirely whitewash the problems within the resistance. The fact that “say what you will about Assad” is the totality of the commentary permitted in critical reflection of Hezb in Syria is embarrassing enough so as to render the podcast unlistenable. Big shame, unnecessary.
