Syria Peace Talks and the Qatar-Funded Caesar Report
The Geneva 2 peace talks in Montreux are characterized as a "bait and switch" after Iran was uninvited and the U.S. demanded Bashar al-Assad's resignation. A report featuring 55,000 images of tortured bodies, smuggled by a defector codenamed "Caesar," is revealed to be commissioned by the law firm Carter-Ruck and funded by the government of Qatar. The hosts argue the report's timing and funding source suggest it is a propaganda tool designed to justify regime change rather than an objective governmental inquiry.
