  • Ukraine, Israel & Taiwan: What the Media Won’t Tell You | Prof. Peter Kuznick

    Ukraine, Israel & Taiwan: What the Media Won’t Tell You | Prof. Peter Kuznick
    Jul 11 2025
    In this episode of The Source, our senior editor Zain Raza speaks with Peter Kuznick, author and Professor of History at American University, about key geopolitical flashpoints that mainstream media often oversimplifies or ignores altogether. They begin with rising tensions in the Taiwan Strait, examining recent U.S. military deployments in the South China Sea, arms shipments to Taiwan, and China’s growing military response. The conversation then turns to Ukraine, where they assess the latest political and military developments and ask whether a negotiated peace is still possible. Finally, they explore the recent 21-day war between Israel, the United States, and Iran — and assess whether any of the stated objectives were actually achieved. Throughout the interview, Professor Kuznick offers critical historical context and examines whether current U.S. foreign policy is promoting global stability — or accelerating the path to greater conflict. ABOUT PETER KUZNICK: Peter Kuznick is Professor of History and Director of the Nuclear Studies Institute at American University in Washington, D.C. He’s the co-author of the book The Untold History of the United States, written together with Hollywood film director and producer Oliver Stone. He was active in the Civil Rights and anti-Vietnam War movements and remains active in antiwar and nuclear abolition efforts.

    Why Israel Attacked Iran — and Why It Backfired | Dr. Shir Hever
    Jul 7 2025

    In this episode of The Source, our senior editor Zain Raza speaks with Dr. Shir Hever, economist and author, about the 12-day war between Israel and Iran. They examine the political motivations behind Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s decision to strike Iran—and why the operation may have backfired both militarily and economically.

    The conversation then shifts to Gaza, analyzing the deepening humanitarian crisis, Israel’s long-term objectives, and the broader question: why does the West continue to support Israel despite mounting evidence of war crimes—if not genocide?

    ABOUT DR. SHIR HEVER: Dr. Shir Hever is an independent economic researcher and journalist. He writes articles and research for various venues and gives lectures in political and academic venues. He is the author of The Privatisation of Israeli Security (Pluto, 2017) and The Political Economy of Israel’s Occupation (Pluto, 2010).

  • Colonel Wilkerson: Who Will Win the Iran-Israel War?

    Colonel Wilkerson: Who Will Win the Iran-Israel War?
    Jun 21 2025
    In this episode of The Source, our senior editor Zain Raza interviews retired U.S. Army Colonel Lawrence Wilkerson on the latest developments in the war between Israel and Iran. They assess the likelihood of U.S. involvement and the potential impact on the broader region. In addition, they explore fundamental questions around whether Iran has the right to possess nuclear weapons and the legality of Israel’s strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities. Lastly, they examine whether Israel is headed toward geopolitical victory—or long-term collapse. ABOUT LAWRENCE WILKERSON: Lawrence Wilkerson is currently a Senior Fellow at the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft and formerly a Distinguished Adjunct Professor of Government and Public Policy at the College of Williams and Mary. Lawrence Wilkerson’s last positions in government were as Secretary of State Colin Powell’s Chief of Staff (2002-05), Associate Director of the State Department’s Policy Planning staff under the directorship of Ambassador Richard N. Haass, and member of that staff responsible for East Asia and the Pacific, political-military and legislative affairs (2001-02). Before serving at the State Department, Wilkerson served 31 years in the U.S. Army. During that time, he was a member of the faculty of the U.S. Naval War College (1987 to 1989), Special Assistant to General Powell when he was Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff (1989-93), and Director and Deputy Director of the U.S. Marine Corps War College at Quantico, Virginia (1993-97). Wilkerson retired from active service in 1997 as a colonel, and began work as an advisor to General Powell. He has also taught national security affairs in the Honors Program at the George Washington University. He is currently working on a book about the first George W. Bush administration.
