Ayacocacola, let’s make a deal. Some are making it seem like the second round of Iran talks went well. We see it differently. The regime wants to have its yellow cake and eat it too.

“Ultimately, we’re trying to answer two questions: What is the potential for prosperity for Lebanon and Syria if they were to reach some sort of peace with Israel? Will the promise of prosperity be enough to get to those deals?” - @HagarChemali, YouTube Host & Creator at @ohmyworldshow

To discuss the economics of peace in the middle east, we are joined by @hahussain, Research Fellow at the @FDD; @NewSamawal, Managing Director of Decision Boundaries LLC; @HagarChemali, YouTube Host & Creator at @ohmyworldshow; @TheActualAmmar Parliamentarian for @WLCongress) at #Concordia25

Yesterday's court decision shows Iran's attempts at lethal plotting against Americans like @AlinejadMasih will be met with swift justice & accountability. Under @POTUS, Iran's front groups and proxies trying to operate in the U.S. will be investigated, disrupted, and prosecuted. justice.gov/opa/pr/two-eas…

Geeks! Today we released a series of educational videos called Geek Out with Oh My World! These videos are short (2-3 minutes), animated, and they teach the basics of international affairs in a fun, fast, and easy way. International relations is often taught using incomprehensible language. Trust me, I’ve worked in this field for over two decades and there are still sentences I see or hear that make no sense to me, let alone a young student. And the problem with that is that it dissuades students from studying these topics and excludes a large portion of Americans from even accessing it, at a time when geopolitics truly matters! So, we fixed that. We want to be the go-to for all things FoPo and so we created a line of videos that teach international relations theories and institutions in a digestible way – not only to make it easier for the student studying these topics, but also to include and inspire a new generation of Americans to pursue these fields. Because as I always say – what we do here, matters very much abroad! And what happens abroad, matters very much here. So please take a look and peruse through the videos (and don’t forget to comment!!). I promise you’ll find them fun and informative. Ten videos have been released so far but more will be regularly added! And if you know any teachers or professors, please send them the link to the videos, it would mean THE WORLD. Stay fabulous and I’ll see you back next week for our regular show! HHH @HagarChemali youtube.com/playlist?list=…
