Disclaimer: Not sure where to put this, but I think it goes here.



This is George Friedman and Richard Kaplan discussing the Iran situation, quite interesting.

Every time George Friedman opens his mouth about Iran I find myself more and more appalled by the fact that he makes money through geopolitical commentary.

Every time he talked about the rebirth of the "Persian Empire" I wanted to fucking kick him in the nuts, and I think the irony of the Friedman's conversation mate's statement about united foreign policy being a pre-req to any sort of rapprochement is lost on the both of them.
