12/2/21 John Dolan (The War Nerd) on the Tigray-Ethiopia War
Scott is joined by John Dolan who used to write under the names Gary Brecher and The War Nerd. The two discuss a recent article Dolan wrote that lays out the big picture causes and developments in the Tigray-Ethiopia war. Dolan explains the necessary Ethiopian history to set the stage for the war and does his best to piece together what’s happened since it began a year ago. Scott and Dolan also discuss the end of the war in Afghanistan and what a modern American civil war would look like.
Discussed on the show:
- “The War Nerd: The Tigray-Ethiopia War” (Naked Capitalism)
- Wore Negari by Mohamed Yimam
John Dolan is a poet, novelist, essayist and former academic. He now works with Mark Ames (of eXile fame) to produce the Radio War Nerd weekly podcast on military matters.
