The recent earthquakes roiling Turkey and Syria have focused international attention on the plight of Syrians living under the crushing weight of U.S. and E.U. sanctions. There is some hope, however, that the sanctions will be lifted to allow humanitarian aid to get in to Syria, but until then the earthquake’s devastation will only be compounded by the international community’s determination to compel suffering on the Syrian people.
Guest host Aaron Maté and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the unavoidable fact that these sanctions are hurting everyday Syrians, and that is by design.
