This book by Trita Parsi came up once on Lex Fridman in the episodes we index. That mention was a genuine on-air recommendation, not just a passing reference. The people who brought it up: Scott Horton. Every occurrence below links to the episode page and to the exact second it was said on YouTube.
“A penetrating, provocative, and very timely study that deciphers how U.S. policy in the Middle East has been manipulated both by Iran and by Israel even as relations between these two oscillated between secret collusion and overt collision.”, The Honorable Zbigniew Brzezinski, former US National Security Advisor to President Jimmy Carter
“Tree parsy shows in his absolutely excellent book treacherous alliance which if you haven't read that you'll absolutely love it.”— Scott Horton
