This week on America's Most Benevolent Podcast®, another super-sized episode. First up, the Middle East is breaking out in...peace. That's good, right? Well, depends who you ask. We discuss. Then, our good pal Dr. Jay Bhattacharya joins to bring us up to speed on the coming vaccine, the (very treacherous) intersection of politics and medicine, whether or not the lockdown was a mistake, and more. The Lileks Post of The Week makes its triumphant return with a terrific post by @KirkianWanderer, Say Goodnight, Blue Eyes”: George Burns on Best Friends. Finally, are you as confused about the social media app Tik-Tok as Peter Robinson? If so, Rob Long is here to explain it to you. Maybe he should make a short video about it?

Considering how openly aggressive Iran has been recently, isn't it likely that peace agreements between Israel and UAE and Bahrain et al, might have happened anyway? And if Hillary Clinton had been president, maybe those agreements would have been made behind her back, EXCLUDING any US participation or "credit?"
But I suppose the point about Trump de-coupling the (so-called) "Palestinians" from the issue deserves credit.

The issue about why would a Biden/Harris administration make a(nother) deal with Iran, is pretty simple. It's because the left, especially the hard left, blames Israel for all the problems in the Middle East. So they want Iran to win.

Rob's next series: "When Ill-Chosen Metaphors Collide."
Or perhaps James' new book.
