0:00.0	It was a very bizarre origin story. The CIA described them as Saddam Hussein's foot soldiers.
0:06.0	They were massacring Shia. They were massacring Kurds. They were on the 10th. They killed six or seven Americans.
0:12.0	These were highly religious Shia Muslims that at the same time were Marxists.
0:16.0	I mean, you mentioned the M.E.K. earlier on.
0:18.0	Things were bad. But in between something else also happened. My dad's name was put in a paper as one of the people that would be executed on the spot.
0:25.6	I remember saying goodbye to him for the last time. They don't execute it as they have promised.
0:29.6	Instead, they put him in jail and guess who is sharing his jail cellway.
0:32.6	Wow!
0:33.6	There's another great tangent right here. We just had something happen down in Venezuela where there was a regime change operation
0:40.3	required no boots on the ground afterwards and no civilians were dead.
0:42.3	Does this create a good scenario or does it create a precedent for the U.S. to then try
0:47.3	regime changes, which those regime changes could cause boot on the ground situations.

1:12.0	They're both a huge huge help.
1:13.4	Thank you so much for having me. me. So you're just, you're coming from the UN right now? Yeah, I was spending two days doing meetings on UN Security Council reform. I'm sorry to hear that. What a mess, man. That place, it just feels like you, all you ever hear is just like people hitting their head against the wall when
2:01.5	they leave it's you know i mean look it is a crucial institution we won't understand how
2:08.1	important it is until we lose and hopefully it won't lose it but it is just become next to impossible
2:14.1	to get anything done so reform and significant changes are going to be absolutely
2:17.8	necessary. But it's important not to abandon it because I think people get so tired thinking,
2:22.1	okay, you know what, just do something else. Reality, anything we would create from scratch
2:26.8	would end up being worse. I think you're right about that. I fully understand why people out there
