Robert Pape discusses the question of Political Violence in the U.S.

The MId-Term Election that hits its crescendo tomorrow, needs to be placed in context; something I have tried to do here previously. Robert Pape has studied the issues involved in politically motivated violence for nearly 30 years; and has lectured U.S. Air Force senior officers on the dubious efficacy of the strategic bombing campaigns they traditionally have favored and conducted.

The longest version of his recent discussion with Pyotr S. Kurzin, a comprehensive 2 hr, 32 min, 15 sec analysis of the sources and development of the political / war situation in which the U.S. is currently embroiled, shows Pape's understanding of these issues. I listened to an excellent pod cast: "Is America's Strategy in Iran Backfiring? with Robert Pape", that is a featured episode of The Global Gambit podcast, hosted by Pyotr S. Kurzin. The duration of the video is 2 hours, 32 minutes, and 15 seconds. However even though a web search yielded up the title and time duration I cannot find a url for the complete discussion. However the two episodes posted here cover most of the issues discussed in "Is America's Strategy in Iran Backfiring? with Robert Pape".

1). “Trump's Fight for Survival is Becoming America's Greatest Danger”, Oct 26, 2026, Pyotir Zurin interviews Robert Pape, Global Gambit, duration of video 57:57, at < https://open.spotify.com/episode/35usBrXPZd0aYaB4fUqZmL >.
