Interview 2024 – Trita Parsi on Why the Iran War Isn’t Over Yet

by | Jul 7, 2026 | Interviews, Videos | 12 comments

Rejoice! The Iran war is over!…or is it? Today James talks to Trita Parsi, the co-founder and Executive Vice President of The Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft, about his recent reporting on why Iran believes Israel will attack again before October. We also discuss the emerging new Middle Eastern order and whether Israel can be brought into the fold or if an anti-Abraham Accord pact will define the new status quo. As a bonus, James asks Trita about reports that the State Department is trying to have him deported.

Trita Parsi is talking like a sensible grown up and we live in hope – if this was the aim of governments towards peace we wouldn’t be in this situation in the first place. Put simply I can’t help but think that the Israeli’s need to be brought to heel for anything to work diplomatically!

May Trita Parsi be right about this issue, the European restrictions of crude oil, liquefied gas, fertilizers, Aluminum and helium… etc. have already started at this point, I believe it is a trick of the European Union run by the elites. They are just playing with this conflict to impoverish their citizens. .

One big difference between Europe in 1945 and the Middle East now is that Europe’s royal families did not hold much real power, unlike the principalities of the Middle East.

Personally speaking, I think peace is more about how people see themselves. If the average person in the UK sees themselves as at war with the average person in Russia, war is more likely. People who see “Russia” or “Iran” or any other country as some amorphous entity personified by a caricatured leader are the ones who sit yelling at the TV (yes, the TV), calling for war.

Israel is a place, so is Iran and the US. Places can not think or act, let alone act rationally. “The Israelis” is not a thing. Whenever you use such words, you mean the politicians ruling at that moment. Now why you would wanna hold an open door for people who are committing genocide (as you said yourself) is beyond my comprehension. There are no political solutions, James knows this, let’s stop pretending otherwise.

Hughsername,

Israel , might as well be a country like “Oz” is a country. Instead of money making for the Hollywood executives it’s a fabricated psyop of the bankers. A creation of Isaac Bresheva Singer and the set of the Beverly Hillbillies fantasy. A fake place, fake history with dangerous mobsters making bank and trying to make over reality.
It’s still a festering boil from the money made off WW2; by you know who. It’s a Hollywood backdrop with a toll booth, and accountants. I must agree your view is one of clarity . It’s way past time to stop pretending. Washington D.C. is a place as fake as the ” The Apprentice” was in any meaningful way… Its become an extension of the Network Entertainment branch of a Swiss Bank.
Breaking that delusion could have dire consequences. What’s there to prevent spontaneous order from reforming into Hollywood 2.0? Our intellect? Our ethics? Pretending has to end.

I appreciate James interviewing Trita Parsi.
I like getting different perspectives on issues.
That’s how we grow.

— Thomas Massie —
Personally, I don’t consider Thomas Massie to be a politician.
Politicians rank below the nematodes which feed on cow dung.
I consider Thomas Massie to be a “Narrative Shaper” and a “Story broadcaster.”
Massie has helped to change the public narrative.
There is no doubt.
Powerful!
Narrative or Story is the best way to frame what Thomas Massie has accomplished in DC.

Israel is a colony of stolen land based on the murder, rape, torture, and genocide of the Palestinian Arabs with an insane โ€œreligiousโ€ goal of world conquest to bring back their version of a supreme being under the narcissistic entitlement of being โ€œthe Chosen people.โ€

Trump is Chabad and his familyโ€™s enriching themselves in the current war effort. In my 84 years there has never been any true peace or warless times. I have attempted since the 60โ€™s to bring awareness of the madness of our world through my activism, music, and more, while trying to balance my life with love and beauty of our most amazing world.
Our true history and creation is far more deep and different then most are able to comprehend, lost in the lies and distortions of the controllers.

I do hope humans will finally change their induced comas of greed and malevolence for it evident it canโ€™t go on much longer just look at social media behavior as a reflection of humans diseased filled world.

PS: James, great renewing of the site.

Maybe this development is being let happen by the powers-that-shouldnt-be because it helps the movement of the control center from west to east. Maybe intensification of what Izrael is doing in Gaza was ment to piss off everybody so that the world community of good people as well would support this change of center of power. All the Gulf countries together with Iran seems to get along better and better with China…

As expected the war is back

My comment:
Zionism wants the full destruction of Israel’s surrounding nations.
Because the US is Israel’s bitch, there will be no peaceful solution

[…] and post-World War II in which Europeans really sought to integrate Germany economically in order to make it as difficult and as costly as possible to ever have another world war in Europe, and it was a tremendously successful strategy, the steel and coal union that eventually led to the European Union.


19:01

But the Europeans, who had been fighting two world wars in half a century, were butchering each other (in ways that the Middle Easterners never have) nevertheless managed to transition away from the previous conception of security to a collective security concept, precisely because they realized they just could not afford to continue to butcher each other that way. In fact, so much of what we have in international law and norms that have been formed in the last half a century come in this period precisely because people remembered the absolute horrors of the scale of that war.

I was looking at it from the opposite perspective, in the sense that one of the major purposes of massive events such as world wars is to increase the centralisation of power. Meaning what Trita Parsi saw as consequences, I understood were goals.

But maybe I’m the one who is naive and didn’t realise from the start I might have been watching a “2D chess” conversation (?)
