- What American get wrong about Iran
- Failure of Western sanctions against Iran
- Iran’s relationship with the Axis of Resistance
- Will Iran retaliate against Israel’s assassination of Hamas chief Ismail Haniyeh
Thank you, great conversation
Brilliant guest, Larry. Thank you! IMHO your interview skills are very good, and your shows are too.
Excellent work gentlemen, thank you. I do not know how widespread the feeling is, but a growing number of Americans are indeed starting to understand what it is like to live in a nation under the iron fist of a foreign military presence and violent repression. Yes, a foreign presence in the form of a weaponized Just-Us-System, militarized police enforcement and a growing surveillance state that every victim of J6 will attest to. I do not think that this year will end without all Americans realizing that. What goes around, comes atound!
Great Conversation! Thank you Larry and Dr. Kamrava for this exchange. While there is conversation, there is hope.
As a helpful side point, the use of M word should be treated like the use of N word for here.
Wat a small world, i was born in the Evin prison in Iran and after 6 months i went to my grandfather’s place in Karaj, after they released my mother we came to Holland. First time i see an iranian from that city. Proud of you professor ❤️. Once again a perfect guest Larry, you are great!
Fantastic interview Larry.
Wonderful and refreshing to hear a Persian point of view unfiltered through the lazy MSM narratives which become very tiresome and contraditory.
More like this please!
Thanks for the great interview Larry ❤
Great talk Larry and great Guest! Thank you!
Thank you gentlemen for this interesting and informative discussion.
Can any country avoid war with the west? This is the actual question.
The west seems hell bent on not allowing other emerging powers to prosper and forge their own path to independence. The west colonialist mindset is still largely at play here just with different tools and means.
Don't expect this professor to comment on this. He is as bland as a turnip
In these dark times we are living through, it is comforting to hear such reasonable and sensible interlocutors. Thank you both.
Dear gentlemen you have great program good luck.
Hi Larry, great interview, please don't forget to ask where we can find or follow their work as closing suggestion.. 👍

Thank you.
Com'on, Larry, ask him about our closest and most precious ally
Dr. Kamrava is careful with his criticism of the US to protect his job at George Town Qatar
Excellent comments professor mehran.
Thank you, Larry, for having this nuanced discussion-- what is really scary is realizing how tenacious the prevailing narrative in the US is, despite being completely divorced from reality. (I.e. Iran as the biggest sponsor of terror, Hamas and Hezbollah as irrational barbarians driven by baseless hate, the US and Israel as good guys protecting democracy...) The amount of influence, money, and control required to infiltrate and shape media, academia, and the halls of power to establish and reinforce these delusions for decades is terrifying-- especially after the 2nd world war, an incestuous alliance of disparate forces with similar and overlapping interests have managed to work in concert.. they all have a vested interest in preventing common sense from taking hold, and have managed to become very efficient at managing public sentiment and effectively shaping the 'truth' as most people know it. It sounds absurd and conspiratorial, and can't be adequately summed up in a CZcams comment, but those who have studied the rise and immense reach of secret intelligence services since WW2 will know. This is not to say the spies are controlling everything, but perhaps their greatest success has been their ability to remain largely in the shadows despite their meteoric rise and unprecedented infiltration of and influence on all aspects of society, both in the US and abroad...
Many analysts opine that Isis is the child of western intelligence, with the help of Saudi Arabia and Turkeye
The antagonism between U.S. and Iran is metaphysical: At the end of the day it comes to leisure time. In the United States this leisure time is spent in sports, playing with gadgets, technological innovation, car racing etc. In Iran the time is spent on poetry, religious and philosophical debate. American collective mental energy is applied to technique, Iran's is applied to being or none being of the highest value, i.e. existence of God. For this metaphysical disparity U.S. and Iran remain diametrically opposed to each other. The tertium comparationis is missing.
Terrific! Thank you. 🙏 🙏
disappointing to hear an intelligent Iranian attributing the US obsession with Iran as entirely due to the US needing a new enemy after the fall of the Soviet Union. I am sure he knows the main reason-- the little Knesset on the Hill. I am also sure his position at that branch of Georgetown Univ bends his integrity

Need a meme of Putin singing:

Heigh ho, the dairy-o
Attritting we will go
Respectfully disagree with this analysis.

That guest is talking rubbish Larry
Those expensive weapons the Saudis bought did not do so well against the Houthis in Yemen.
So this guy is Iranian but works in Qatar? It’s pretty clear then why he criticizes the Iranian for “doing everything to play the villain role”!! Lol 😂. Is he kidding? So, Iran is a villain even if they have tried to make political deals (e.g., JCPOA) with the US which the US violating every time? I think this Qatari agent is assuming only US vassal states prostituting their lands as US military basis to threaten Iran (like Qatar or UAE) are not villains? This guy seems like a full of shit mouthpiece working against his own country of origin!
Great conversation. Thank you larry . What is your Twitter account?
Larry fucking rules thanks larry
