🔥 What if the war on Iran didn’t start in 2025—but years earlier, in boardrooms, think tanks, and Western silence?

In this urgent, unfiltered interview, we sit down with Dr. Arthur Khachikian, a political scientist trained at Stanford and one of the most incisive voices on power, sovereignty, and the catastrophic failures of Western foreign policy. With Gaza still burning, Iran under fire, and ICC arrest warrants hanging over Israeli leaders—including Netanyahu himself—this conversation cuts through the propaganda and asks: How did we get here?

🎯 Topics we cover:

  • The West’s complicity in Gaza and Artsakh
  • Israel’s long-term strategy behind the Iran war
  • The fall of Assad and the road to Tehran
  • Why the ICC warrant for Netanyahu matters
  • The silence of the so-called "international community"
  • How genocide and expansion are still sold as defense
  • What we refuse to learn from history

👁️‍🗨️ Arthur doesn’t just offer analysis—he names names, exposes patterns, and links the Armenian Genocide to the moral collapse we're witnessing today.

🧠 Whether you're following the Gaza war, the ICC indictments, or the U.S.–Israel–Iran flashpoint, this is the interview the mainstream won’t show you—but you need to hear.
