Adam Patterson on Assad, Daesh and the YPG/YPJ

Adam returns to the show to discuss the upcoming offensive in Raqqa, Chemical Weapons in Syria and Bashar Al-Assad. Also, I chastise the left for developing a poor analysis of Syria based on our own projections, and proceed to do the very thing I criticize. Also, dick jokes.Find Adam Patterson at Napalm in the Morning (http://www.napalminthemorning.com/) and Current Affairs (https://www.currentaffairs.org/author/adampatterson). You can reach him on Twitter @AdamPattersonDC or contact him via email at napalmintheAM@gmail.com.The Movements is a leftist history and politics podcast.
