⁩"Energy is at the heart of it" w/ Laleh Khalili

The brothers welcome University of Exeter Professor Laleh Khalili to the show to discuss the geopolitical and geoeconomic contexts of the US-Israeli war of aggression on Iran, including the role of Iran and the Gulf in global energy and trade markets and circuits; shifts in international trade and finance away from circuits controlled by the US and its coercive mechanisms of financial and trade sanctions; the gradual dismantling of US sanctions regime; Iran's destruction of US bases, radar systems and other military infrastructure in and around the Gulf; the role of the Arab Gulf states; the reshaping of Gulf and regional politics; strategic waterways such as Bab el Mandan and the Straits of Hormuz, the prospect of Iran generating income from tolls on ships passing through Hormuz and, at that, insisting on payment in renminbi rather than dollars, and, finally, the quest for energy sources driving various Israeli projects of war and occupation.
