Hi 👋 Anthony Scaramucci and Steve Coll for another great podcast. Sorry I am late watching but I am working on catching up. Very interesting thank you for sharing and I forgot some of this. Your book 📖 sounds very interesting on the Middle East and at home
Excellent discussion with lots of new information... thank you...
Hello Anthony: It was a great interview. Allowed me to review this moment in history in the Middle East. Also, learn precise and unknown facts to me at least: as the four novels in five years.
Perhaps wondering if this war could have been avoided; the mistakes made by the USA then and having moved away from this character for eleven years as a kind of historical revisionism have been my favorite topics. THANK YOU:)
Loved this❤
The Pakistanis decided who’d get the Stingers. It’s possible that Afghan groups that OBL’s Arabs were affiliated with received Stingers but it wasn’t a case of the Americans directly giving OBL Stingers.
Great interview! I know you are a big crypto guy. Are you going to be doing videos on that subject much. Or is this about book reviews? If so, interview John Deaton!!
John Deaton is coming up! Thanks so much for listening.
