The MeidasTouch Podcast episode covers widespread protests in the Middle East against U.S. and Israeli military actions under Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu, alongside details of escalating strikes, Trump's rhetoric, and expert critiques of the strategy. It highlights demonstrations in multiple countries and recent attacks on infrastructure, framing the conflict as deepening sectarian divides rather than achieving submission.

Mass Protests Against the War

Millions, possibly tens of millions, protested across the Middle East against the Trump and Netanyahu regimes. In Baghdad, a million-person rally featured Shiite clerics urging Iraq to join Iran against the U.S. and Israel, with crowds showing solidarity amid chants. Similar protests occurred in Syrian cities, nearly daily, opposing the war on Iran, attacks in the Middle East, and an Israeli law allowing executions of Palestinian captives. In Yemen, hundreds of thousands rallied at Houthi events in Sabine Square, signaling preparations to potentially shut down the Red Sea. Even in Israel, hundreds demonstrated weekly in Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, and Haifa against the Netanyahu government, demanding an end to the war in Iran, as covered by Al Jazeera. These events counter claims that Trump and Netanyahu would be seen as heroes, instead sparking sectarian rifts, particularly among Shiites.
