Week in Review: Fascism Reawakens in Italy
Show Notes
- Elections in Italy will bring to power a political party with roots in Italian fascism. We talk about what this reveals about the Italian electorate and how this could catalyze a change in the direction of the European Union.
- Western media have focused on Russians protesting Vladimir Putin’s military draft, but the Russian president retains significant power. He brandished it even this week by annexing major sections of Ukraine into Russia.
- Protests in Iran continue, but are they enough to threaten the Iranian regime?
- We also talk about the devastation of Hurricane Ian, the sabotage of the Nord Stream pipeline, financial crisis in the United Kingdom, a joint naval patrol between Russia and China, Iran buying land in Venezuela, and a plea for America to take practical steps to alleviate the world energy crisis.
