#087 US Elections, Israel & Iran

Season 5 · Episode 1

Tuesday, October 15, 2024 • Duration 51:29

We are back from our summer break and what a summer break that was. Joe Biden drops out of the US elections and Kamala Harris takes his place. In the meantime, Israel has been invading Lebanon while the Western Media is still waiting for Iran to throw the Middle East into a large-scale conflict. Time for us to analyse the world again, through the lens of the Western Bubble!
