Today we had another conversation with our frequent guest and comrade Professor Eskandar Sadeghi of The University of St. Andrews in Scotland, who's an international authority of Iranian history and politics and the region generally. We talked about the impact of the war on Iran, how the Iranian government and military responded, and often succeeded, in fighting the Israeli and U.S. aggression, the current status after the signing of the Memorandum of Understanding, and what the longer term impact of the war on the region might be. Guest Bio// Eskandar is the author of *Revolution and its Discontents* and many articles on essays on Iran, and frequently contributes to the New Left Review and London Review of Books, among others.---------------------------- Outro// "Green and Red Blues" by Moody 💚 Support the Green and Red Podcast 🎉 Become a Patron: https://www.patreon.com/greenredpodcast ☕ One-time donation: https://bit.ly/DonateGandR 🎙️ Follow Green and Red 🔗 Linktree: https://linktr.ee/greenandredpodcast 🌐 Website: https://greenandredpodcast.org 🌍 Our Networks 🎧 Labor Podcast Network: https://www.laborradionetwork.org 📢 Anti-Capitalist Podcast Network: https://linktr.ee/anticapitalistpodcastnetwork 📻 Listen on WAMF (90.3 FM) New Orleans: https://wamf.org ✊ Worker Power Radio: https://workerpowerradio.ismyradio.com/ 🎬 A Green and Red Podcast production 👨‍🏫 Produced by Bob (@bobbuzzanco) and Scott (@sparki1969) ✂️ Edited by Scott 🔔 Subscribe for more analysis on U.S. politics, leftist strategy, and anti-establishment resistance.
