Description:In Episode 20 of the Bogan Intelligentsia Podcast, we’re thrilled to bring our dedicated fans a hard-hitting discussion with Dr. Jay Tharappel, a geopolitical expert with a PhD in Political Economy. Recorded in Wollongong, Dr. Tharappel presents a slideshow on the Syrian crisis (2011–present), dissecting the swift collapse of Assad’s government, Western narratives about civilian casualties, and the US’s contradictory stance against both ISIS and Assad. We explore Syria’s current state post-Assad, Israel’s ambitions in Rojava and against Iran, the future of the Shia Crescent, and the Gaza-Syria link in the “Greater Israel” framework.
