Massive Explosion Escalates Lebanon Protests

by | Aug 12, 2020

On FPF #531, Will Porter returns to the show to discuss the ongoing unrest in Lebanon. Protests escalated after government negligence led to a massive explosion at the Bierut Port. The country’s prime minister and his cabinet resigned, although they will remain in place as caretakers until a new government is formed. Will and Kyle also talk about Biden’s VP pick, the US trying to take Syrian oil, and Turkish drone strikes in Iraq.
