Summary
In this episode of El Niño Speaks, José Niño is joined by geopolitical researcher and author William Van Wagenen to dismantle the official narrative about Syria and the so‑called “Arab Spring.” Van Wagenen breaks down how the Syrian war was engineered as a regime-change project aligned with the Yinon Plan, using Gulf-backed Salafist militants as Western and Israeli assets to fracture the region and rebrand jihadist proxies as a legitimate “government.” Follow William Van Wagenen: Book: Creative Chaos: The Syrian War and the Origins of the Modern Middle East Twitter: @WVanwagenen Libertarian Institute: https://libertarianinstitute.org/author/wvanwagenen/ NEXT: If you liked the show, feel free to continue supporting my work.
