"Iran's Rise and Rivalry with the US" – Book Talk with Prof. Mohsen Milani

Iran’s cold war with the US can only be understood through examining the country’s long history of empire, invasion and containment. In his new book, Mohsen Milani provides fascinating details about how this antagonism began before the 1979 revolution, how the US inadvertently boosted Iranian influence by invading Iraq and why Iran’s rigid anti-Americanism and Israeli rejectionism are ultimately unsustainable.
