In today’s episode we talk about, how Iran’s involved in Lebanon officially kicks off the battle for influence we talked about before. Then we speculate on Turkey’s neighborhood and the opportunities that are, and will remain, open to them as we move forward along with some of the armed conflicts I see them fighting in the name of their new empire. Lastly we give a post mortem on the US backed Afghan forces and take stock of the highly anticipated Taliban victory. All that and more!
