11mins in, I like the way this lady conducts the interview. No needless interruptions of her quest. Has a quest who is knowledgeable on the subject matter and lets him speak. Very refreshing approach.
Indian reporters are terrible in terms of respect ....just showing off their English knowledge and geopolitics expertise at the expense of the guest ...having too many guests like Indian public transport ... And cutting them off frequently ... More of an orgy than a session of reason
Mind you the 2 Trillion spent by the US in Afghanistan was not for the benefit of the Afghanis but 99% of that was spent on the US military industrial complex
2 trillion dollars, guess how many students in U.S will be educated under a low cost? How many people in U.S. will get proper medical care? How many infrastructures will be constructed? But those, are no way to be taken place. Because what I described are the benifits to that 99%. The profits U.S. took from Afghanistan/Iraq/Syria/Ethiopia/Lybia...... are for the 1%. They give a shxt to the normal people, even in their own country. How they would to care about the others?
@@stephencunningham6557 yeah but they didn't "provide homes, healthcare ,food and education" in Afghanistan. The entire 2 trillion dollars went directly inside of MIC's pocket and American contractors and business man were who benefited. They also benefited from opium production in Afghanistan.This invasion was also about global opium poppy production and American businesses profited over 2 trillion dollars from it. Now with new discovery of creating syntactic heroin in their own Pharmaceutical labs, corporation don’t need Afghanistan as much. Since United States military occupation of Afghanistan in 2001, followed by NATO occupation in 2003, opium production has increased exponentially. Areas under Taliban control had zero production in 2001 (Global Research, October 17, 2018). in 2001 there were only 8,000 hectares of poppy fields in the entire Afghanistan (non control by Talibans) and by 2017 it expanded to 328,000 hectares. in 2001 Afghanistan was accounted for 3% of the world's opium supply and by 2020 this number jump to 93%.
Congrats Joe ..more guts than Obomba , More Guts than Trump ...you have done the country proud...I am not a Dem , but could be keep this up ...again Congrats you have made the history books with honour and distinction...God speed
wtf does that quote have to do with Taliban takeover 2021 ? and from Kissinger, a calm, intellectual, many chains of command removed from his masterminded mass murders . Kissinger is a quintessential psychopath. What's disturbing is psychopathy is much closer to "normal" personality . Psychopaths function , a psychotic, schizophrenic, manic depressive anyone "mentally ill" don't function . And contrary to conventional beliefs and the fear mongering from big pharma & mental health industries $$$$$$$$$$$, crazy fuckers gesticulating wildly on street corners, giving nonsense speeches, thinking they are the king of spain etcetera are in fact much less likely to commit violence per capita than so called normal persons . yes, i realize i have digressed and so what . what i have rambled is important to a lesser or greater degree, regarding normality and those in power over the vast majority of us in the US and around the world .

I always appreciate Prof Marandi's insight into this part of the world. Well done, Rania and Prof Marandi. Looking forward to more in depth, non-BS analysis.
I’m a newbie to this channel but am really enjoying the content. I’m so grateful to observe this conversation. I’m 56 and have lived through a lot of US bullshit revisionist history and lies. It pains me what this country is doing around the world. Thank you Dr. Marandi!

It was a brutal decision that is indicative of the entire Afghanistan misadventure; brutish, savage and psychopathic. All terms that perfectly describe what the US really is.
Apart from death and destruction, US and its allies had brought Afghanistan nothing in 20 years. How many Afghan has become refugees within their own country? Even the US people don't benefit from the 20 year war. Only a few companies from US and Afghan government officer and their families got rich!!
Over 4 mill Afghan refugees outside their country: 2 mill in Pakistan, 2 mill in Iran. Same with Syria with 7 mill refugees: 4 mill in Turkey, 1 mill in Lebanon, 1 mill between Jordan and Iraq, and only 100k in Europe. Meanwhile, the West pretends like they're harboring all these refugees when it's literally nothing, neither does the Gulf Arab monarchies, the very people who start these wars. The Gulf regimes will permanently settle Indians and Filipinos in the millions, but they and Malaysia don't want Muslim peoples who need the help and deports helpless Rohingya.
@@realtalk6195 In Europe there is about a million Syrian refugees. However refugees arrive from all over the world. Kind of split evenly (~20%) between Middle East, Asia, Africa, Latin America.

Very very informative interview in this situation of confusion, Prof. Marrandi is the man for this discussion and he is truthful most importantly, of course not forgetting the Host Rania for making this wonderful interview, you are beautiful in terms of speaking the truth as well as on the outside. May God bless you both !
Great interview. A good conversation with knowledgeable guest as well as interviewer. And letting the guest talk and not interrupt is a sign of a quality interviewer, thanks for that, i'ts very important and appreciated.
feel so glad hearing this conversation about the stability and peace on afghanistan, another media should facing the truth of the Taliban now and support afghani people interest in the best way.
👍👍👍 Good intellectual discussion. Appreciate the well articulated discussion and knowledge of Muhammad Marandi. Pray Afghanistan will develop its infrastructures and prosper with the help of friends like China, Russia and Iran. Thanks Rania for an interesting and informative interview. Blessings from Malaysia.
This was a big victory for Iran and China! Chinese are already gearing up for huge investment! I hope Afghanistan finally sees the development they’ve been wanting 💕
Americans cannot even run sway without making a pot roast out of it ... BRIC is safe .... Anti China sourpusses can wear a tinfoil hat and cry in a corner ... Lol
This is fantastic, Rania. How refreshing and revolutionary an interview. Questions news buffs have cared about, even getting into some of the background and personality of this Iran-expert. Who covers stories like this? I'd have to say that in my mind to this moment I have never seen a better political interview.
@@eridon111 I disagree based on the info I gathered. The rebels are aided by the US.US cut the funding b/c Ethiopian government is not negotiating with the rebels who massacred innocent civilians and Ethiopian army in the middle of the night.

Wow!! Amazing interview!! For a Western like myself, this is a completely new perspective on this issue. Imagine if mainstream media would do this for us, that is, bringing in new perspectives in order to expand our knowledge and understanding. How different everything would be.
I always learn something new from Dr. Marandi. He has great wisdom, intelligence, and integrity. The U.S. is at the top of the charts as far as incompetence and corruption are concerned. Thank you Rania for having this brother on your show.
As someone from ASEAN, and with the imperialists incessantly bleating about SCS, I do hoped fellow folks in ASEAN Region will be intaking these with all the intelligence and critical thinking they have mustered. US in an extremely "reliable" ally with a near impeccable record, where they will ditch you in no time if you no longer fits their interest. So anyone who wants to be an US vassal state in ASEAN in the attempt to encircle and encumber China, do take a hard look at Afghanistan.
What a relief it is to see and hear an adult conversation about the issues in Afghanistan and the Iranian perspective!!!!!!!! Since the fall of the Shah in 1979 there has been little or no news allowed in the US that is in any way reasonable or rational. The Iranian government is treated as though it were a menacing enemy and rarely is there any reasonable consideration of the Iranian view, let alone the Iranian government view, of current developments in Iran, the middle east or anywhere. So thank you for being a responsible outlet that allows us to hear and see for ourselves an Iranian view that isn't pure negative propaganda. I do disagree with the Prof. in that the US is not weaker at all. It's simply reallocating assets. It is just as strong and just as menacing and just as capable of doing almost anything anywhere in the world. the US government did precisely what they intended to do: make a lot of money and maintain strategic control of Afghan territory for no good reason. They never intended to "win". They never intended to improve Afghanistan. It would be a very big mistake for any nation to misjudge the ongoing and sustainable power of the US in the coming decades. The imperialism of the US remains unchallenged, at least directly. As an American, I would love for our government to recognize that ongoing imperialism is not in our national interest, not to mention, the interests of other nations. But I doubt that will come to pass anytime soon.
Excellent show, very informative and enjoyable. What I enjoyed most of the senator's smile. Keep smiling, you look 15 years younger when you smile. Good luck and good day 1
Was it Ron Paul who said something like the grave error in imperialist states is to overextend its militarism? The US is on its way to doing this. Great discussion between Rania and Dr. Marandi.
I listened to another journalist report on these exact same things earlier this morning, a man named Pepe, being i interviewed on the Gray Zone. He was just as fascinating as this guy, maybe more so. Either way, it’s always good to hear more than one journalist reporting on these stories of corruption. Pepe took a long time too, about 2 hours. It’s so in-depth. And I also remember thinking the plane & 9/11 photos are so similar. This is so interesting, Incredible information, thank you. I would be lost without journalists like you. ❤️
1:03:00 - Let's be honest here, these fleeing 5th columnists in Afghanistan got what they deserved. The rest of the world's pro-US 5th column in various countries need to see what happens when they become pawns of US imperialism, & how worthless they truly are in the eyes of the US regime.
