7/16/21 Dave DeCamp on Iraq, Iran and US Withdrawal from the Middle East
Scott talks to Dave DeCamp about some of the latest stories at antiwar.com. Recently, says DeCamp, it’s been reported that Iran was urging Iraqi militias not to retaliate against the U.S., after they’d been the target of airstrikes by the Biden administration. Needless to say, this doesn’t exactly comport with the mainstream narrative about Iran, and you won’t see stories like this widely covered. Dave and Scott go on to discuss a rumored American withdrawal from Iraq and wrap up with an update on the negotiations between the U.S. and Iran surrounding a reinstatement of the nuclear deal.
Discussed on the show:
- “Iraqi Militias Defy Iran By Attacking US Forces” (Antiwar.com)
- “Keeping up attacks, some Iraq militias challenge patron Iran” (Associated Press)
- “Iraq Says U.S. Discusses Troop Withdrawal, Biden Administration Denies” (Newsweek)
- “US Denies Troop Withdrawal Was Discussed in Iraq” (Antiwar.com)
- “Iran Not Ready to Resume Nuclear Talks Until New President Takes Office” (Antiwar.com)

12/05/07 – Gordon Prather – The Scott Horton Show
Antiwar.com’s Dr. Gordon Prather explains his suspicions that the CIA doesn’t have any credible evidence that Iran ever had a nuclear weapons program to halt in 2003 and that the timing of the NIE may have been meant to undercut ElBaradei’s anticipated report to that effect later this month.

12/05/07 – Philip Giraldi – The Scott Horton Show
Former CIA and DIA officer and Antiwar.com columnist Philip Giraldi explains his view of the new Iran NIE, Iran’s ‘hypothetical’ nuclear weapons program which amounts to basically nothing to have been suspended in 2003, the neocons’ pathetic cries that the CIA is out to get the vice president, the new evidence obtained, the ignorance of the Congress, the likely angle of the War Party from here, what sort of war is planned for, the U.S.-Israeli attempt to get friendly Arab governments on board and the future of U.S. occupation in Iraq.

12/05/07 – Gareth Porter – The Scott Horton Show
Historian and journalist Gareth Porter discusses the new Iran NIE, it’s dual role as verifying the peaceful nature of the Iranian’s nuclear program while also pretending to verify that Iran had a nuclear weapons program in the first place (which remains unproven, confirmation in the NIE that the Iranians can in fact be negotiated with, the deterrent value in simply being able to get their centrifuges working right, the lowered standard of their ‘possessing the knowledge,’ to make a nuke as casus belli and his view that the NIE has greatly reduced the possibility of war.

Former Israeli diplomat Daniel Levy, now at the New America Foundation, discusses the upcoming Annapolis peace conference, the letter from the American establishment to Bush and Rice urging them to make real progress toward a two-state solution, the negative consequences of current American policy, the failure of the ‘roadmap to peace,’ the lack of a real strategic purpose behind the occupation of the West Bank and Golan Heights, U.S. intervention to the detriment of an Israeli/Syrian peace deal, the blown opportunity to work with Hamas and the consequences, the effect of the neocons’ ‘Clean Break‘ doctrine on current policy, the contemptible myth that the origin of America and Israel’s problems in the Middle East are rooted in radical Islam rather than real grievances about circumstances here on earth and his belief that the U.S. should remain involved, but should start getting it right.
