In this episode of The Deep Dive – Exploring Radical Ideas, we confront a disturbing parallel: Is the Islamic Republic of Iran the ideological heir to Nazi Germany?
We examine the regime’s genocidal antisemitism, its theocratic totalitarianism, and its imperial ambitions through history, philosophy, and political analysis. Drawing on the appeasement failures of the 1930s, we argue that the West is once again turning a blind eye to an explicit evil — while Israel stands alone, as Britain once did, resisting a rising force of barbarism.
This isn’t just geopolitics — it’s a moral reckoning.
