Ep 42 Tillerson's Way Forward on Syria

Dan and Joanne talk about Rex Tillerson's unveiling of the Trump administration's new Syria policy via a Stanford University speech and interview with Condoleeza Rice. The policy is named "The Way Forward" but ironically it seems more like a regression to the Bush/Cheney neoconservative foreign policy for the Middle East.     We are independent media and we rely on your contributions.
