Trump intensifies murderous Iran sanctions during COVID-19 crisis
Pushback with Aaron Maté
As Iran struggles to contain the COVID-19 pandemic, the Trump administration has imposed new sanctions that further weaken the Iranian economy and health system. Assal Rad of the National Iranian American Council discusses the sanctions' toll on Iran and how the Trump administration's regime change agenda could lead to bigger catastrophe.
Guest: Assal Rad, Research Fellow at the National Iranian American Council.
Ben Norton explains how Washington is trying to starve civilians in Venezuela by imposing sanctions and trying to destroy the government's CLAP food program. He also discusses the illegal US extradition/kidnapping of Venezuelan diplomat Alex Saab, who was trying to buy food and medicine.

A recent article in The Guardian parroted a US state-funded group's evidence-free allegations that The Grayzone’s Aaron Maté -- who has reported extensively on the OPCW’s Syria cover-up scandal -- is "the most prolific spreader of disinformation" about Syria among a "network" of "conspiracy theorists."
Aaron called Guardian reporter Mark Townsend on the phone to ask him to substantiate these defamatory claims, and why he didn’t reach out before printing them.
Guest: Mark Townsend. Reporter for The Guardian who wrote the story, “Network of Syria conspiracy theorists identified” — now updated with Aaron Maté’s response.

Note: to reduce repetition, the recording of the phone call between Aaron and Mark Townsend has been shortened. Townsend was contacted for comment prior to publication of this segment, but did not respond.
