Following up from the first conversation about insurgency, which focussed on Marxist insurgencies, this episode primarily focuses on insurgencies in the Islamic World. Special attention is paid to the tensions between Islamic communities and communist nations and the differences between terrorism and insurgencies. Toward the end, there is also a discussion of the ways in which global powers might benefit from delegitimizing the US system of government. Dr. Caleb Karges is your host, as usual, and regular gues, alumnus, and Marine officer in training Joe Popp brings profound insights to the conversation.  Minute 41 is where it transitions to the elections in the US.
