Iran Update w/ Col. Larry Wilkerson, Vijay Prashad, Tony Greenstein & Kouros Esmaeli

Colonel Lawrence Wilkerson joins us to discuss the war on Iran and whether Ukraine is winning its war against Russia, as former Vice President Mike Pence has recently argued. Author, activist, and Palestine-solidarity campaigner Tony Greenstein returns following his acquittal on a charge under Section 12(1) of the Terrorism Act 2000—alleging that he invited support for a proscribed organisation—over three X posts linking to a 2023 blog post. Finally, journalist and historian Vijay Prashad and Kouros Esmaeli unpack the recent Guardian open letter addressed to Iranian political prisoners, initially signed by figures including Rashid Khalidi, Robin D. G. Kelley, and Angela Davis, and the controversy surrounding its text and signatories.
