Key Notes
The host says humanitarian language such as women's rights in Iran is a public-relations wrapper used to sell great-power struggle in absurdly moralized terms.
The host argues that every war is sold as limited and morally benign, whether as anti-cartel cleanup in Latin America or freedom-delivery in the Middle East, which is why publics underestimate escalation risk.
The host says Putin can now tell the Russian public that he tried every possible avenue with Trump but still received sanctions and renewed ceasefire demands.
