As the world watches Gaza burn, Iran tremble, and diplomacy stall, what if the real war isn't between nations—but within them?

In this powerful episode, Maz is joined once again by Lebanese economist and seasoned political analyst Nadim Shehadi to explore the often-overlooked internal fractures driving conflict in the Middle East.

🔥 Key Themes

  1. Israel’s impunity — and the global powers that enable it

  2. The breakdown of the rules-based order — from UN paralysis to EU dysfunction

  3. The human cost of war — and who bears responsibility ...and indirectly touches on:

  4. Russia and regional distraction

  5. Global realignment via JCPOA, Iran, and the Gulf

  6. US culture wars shaping foreign policy

  7. Erosion of institutional trust

  8. Diplomacy as performance — and power play
