GESPONSERT
There’s only so much you can do in a week – or, according to Oliver Burkeman, in the roughly 4,000 weeks the average human lives. Oliver is a journalist and author of the books Four Thousand Weeks: Time Management for Mortals, Meditations for Mortals, and the newsletter “The Imperfectionist.” Chris and Oliver discuss the paradox of why change can only occur once we accept that we might not be able to change. Oliver also shares how life’s mishaps can become our most treasured memories and why sharing your imperfections is an act of generosity.

They begin by examining Israel’s recent bombing of Syria and its broader implications within a fractured, post-Assad landscape. The conversation then turns to the Iran–Israel war, as Lascaris offers critical insight into the 21-day conflict, the role of the United States, and whether any of the stated objectives were realistically achieved. They also discuss the role of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and the persistent double standards in global nuclear oversight. Shifting to Ukraine, they analyze Donald Trump’s evolving stance on the war, the renewed flow of U.S. weapons, and the 50-day ultimatum issued to Russia. Finally, the discussion explores whether Israel can continue its assault on Gaza amid the political unraveling of Prime Minister Netanyahu’s coalition.

In this episode of The Source, our senior editor Zain Raza speaks with Peter Kuznick, author and Professor of History at American University, about key geopolitical flashpoints that mainstream media often oversimplifies or ignores altogether. They begin with rising tensions in the Taiwan Strait, examining recent U.S. military deployments in the South China Sea, arms shipments to Taiwan, and China’s growing military response. The conversation then turns to Ukraine, where they assess the latest political and military developments and ask whether a negotiated peace is still possible. Finally, they explore the recent 21-day war between Israel, the United States, and Iran — and assess whether any of the stated objectives were actually achieved. Throughout the interview, Professor Kuznick offers critical historical context and examines whether current U.S. foreign policy is promoting global stability — or accelerating the path to greater conflict. ABOUT PETER KUZNICK: Peter Kuznick is Professor of History and Director of the Nuclear Studies Institute at American University in Washington, D.C. He’s the co-author of the book The Untold History of the United States, written together with Hollywood film director and producer Oliver Stone.

They examine the political motivations behind Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s decision to strike Iran—and why the operation may have backfired both militarily and economically.

In this episode of The Source, our senior editor Zain Raza speaks with independent journalist and human rights lawyer Dimitri Lascaris about rising reports that Israel is preparing to strike Iran’s nuclear facilities—potentially with or without U.S. support. They explore whether the region is edging closer to military confrontation and what this means for the future of U.S.–Iran relations. The conversation also covers the significance of Ukraine’s covert Operation Spider's Web, which targeted Russian airbases deep inside the country, and its potential impact on the stalled peace talks in Istanbul. Additionally, they assess the recent decision by several Western states—namely the UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and Norway—to impose sanctions on two far-right Israeli ministers, Bezalel Smotrich (Finance Minister) and Itamar Ben-Gvir (National Security Minister), and ask: does this signal a meaningful policy shift, or is it too little, too late to influence Israel’s conduct in Gaza? ABOUT DIMITRI LASCARIS: Dimitri Lascaris is a journalist and lawyer. As a lawyer, he specializes in class action litigation, international law and human rights.
