The Two Matts

Is news from Syria too good to be true?


Listen Later

Al-Assad has fled to Moscow and the Damascus is in the throes of a revolution after decades of autocratic tyranny and the deaths of hundreds of thousands. So we should celebrate, right? Yes … but … the Matts explore the history of Syria, how we got here and how the past will bend the narrative of what’s to come. What should we make of the liberation of Syria this week? Enjoy.
