44:19Rory StewartHOST
Rob Malley, and he was talking about, you know, twenty-five-person teams right in the middle of the Middle East peace process, all of them with doctorates, all of them speaking local languages fluently, all of them intensely involved in the technocratic thing.
R
44:31Rory StewartHOST
Now, basically, it's Jared Kushner, Steve Witkoff, occasionally JD Vance flying around with four or five staffers, and it...
R
44:41Rory StewartHOST
So how do you get an Iran deal on that basis?

Y
10:03Yasir QadhiHOST
India there, much of Africa there, South Africa there, everything, just cut everything off.
Y
10:07Yasir QadhiHOST
They just realized, "We can't do this." And a part of what they cut off was the, uh, uh, the, uh, mandate that was given to them, uh, to control this area, and they threw it at the United Nations and said, "Hey, guys, you take care of this, and we have a plan," and that plan is eventually became the UN Partition Plan.
Y
10:24Yasir QadhiHOST
So one of the first resolutions of the United N- United Nations, look at the number, 181.
Y
10:29Yasir QadhiHOST

Fault Lines Episode 637: Houthis Hit Riyadh: Where’s Washington?
J
10:09John LipskyPANELIST
Uh, look, the, um, they have been clear about what they think should be done, and they, what they think should be done is to cut off funding, uh, to support the Iran war, to adopt war powers resolutions, to, uh, end hostilities and remove troops from the region.
J
10:28John LipskyPANELIST
Uh, Phil Gordon, Robert Malley, Chris Murphy, John Feiner, all these guys are saying, "Take whatever deal you can get.
J
10:36John LipskyPANELIST
You know, it's going to include Iranian control of the strait.
J
10:39John LipskyPANELIST
That's better than continuing the war." So the Demo- the policy of the opposition is to strike a deal, cut your losses, give Iran some kind of control over the strait in the war.
SAUDI ROYAL FAMILY IN CRISIS AS HOUTHIS BOMB REFINERIES AND AIRPORTS – w/ Scott Horton
S
25:59Scott HortonGUEST
But the m- the most important part of it, and we'll get back to AQ in a second 'cause there's a lot of it, but the, the most important part here, again, we're talking March 2015, Obama says, "Okay, fine.
S
26:10Scott HortonGUEST
Go ahead." There's also a article by Robert Malley.
S
26:13Scott HortonGUEST
I'm sure you're familiar with him.
S
26:14Scott HortonGUEST
He got in trouble in the Biden years for being a negotiator.
Protest Contest
J
54:09John PodhoretzHOST
"... spent my, the end of my presidency doing everything I possibly could to create the conditions for a Palestinian state, and it was the Palestinians who said no.
J
54:20John PodhoretzHOST
It was not Israel who said no." He has staffers like the egregious and villainous Robert Malley, who worked for him, who have been spending 25 years re- attempting to revise the history of the last months of the Clinton presidency to say that Israel was the reason that they couldn't come up with a final deal at Camp David in 2000.
J
54:42John PodhoretzHOST
And Clinton himself says that is not true.
J
54:46John PodhoretzHOST
And if he wanted to be in good with the current world of the r- of the Democratic Party, he would say it was true.
Roger Carstens on finding the key to the cell
R
9:46Roger CarstensGUEST
We're trying to get a deal with the Russians, but the Russians aren't being very helpful.
R
9:49Roger CarstensGUEST
They're not necessarily being good faith negotiators.
R
9:52Roger CarstensGUEST
And the Russians were stunned because we had never done that before.
R
9:55Roger CarstensGUEST
Now they do it.
24 MINS LATER
R
33:31Roger CarstensGUEST
They're tough people.
R
33:32Roger CarstensGUEST
They're successful.
R
33:32Roger CarstensGUEST
They're great negotiators.
R
33:34Roger CarstensGUEST
But when you show up and in your brain start going through a traditional Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy or Harvard negotiation, well, number one, it's not translating.

B
15:54Brian KatulisHOST
International Crisis Group.
A
15:54Andrew TablerGUEST
Right, with Rob Malley.
B
15:55Brian KatulisHOST
Yeah.
A
15:56Andrew TablerGUEST
And I had signed with them, and I came to Washington to interview people, and I went with Rob to the Syrian embassy to meet Imad Mustafa, who was then the Syrian embassy and watchdog for the Syrians-
A
16:13Andrew TablerGUEST
He says hello.
A
16:14Andrew TablerGUEST
We sit down.
A
16:16Andrew TablerGUEST
S- Mustafa's there, I'm here, Rob Malley's over there, and then we're going through, Rob's saying, "Well, Andrew's writing this report for the adminis- you know, incoming administration." It was the incoming Obama administration when we met.
B
16:26Brian KatulisHOST
Right.
The Big Weekend Pod
R
60:43Rich GoldbergGUEST
Let's name names.
R
60:45Rich GoldbergGUEST
Somebody like a Rob Malley, right? He was Joe Biden's special envoy for Iran.
R
60:49Rich GoldbergGUEST
We know he talks to the Iranians.
R
60:52Rich GoldbergGUEST
He's been friendly with Iranian leaders like Javad Zarif and others for a long, long time.
R
61:37Rich GoldbergGUEST
I mean, it's just amazing that they can even think in their brains there's anything like this going on.
R
61:42Rich GoldbergGUEST
But the Iranians read our press because the press covers what the Senate Democrats say.
R
61:47Rich GoldbergGUEST
And then they hear from the Trita Parsons, the Rob Malley's other people saying, oh, this could work.
R
61:52Rich GoldbergGUEST
This could work.
Bret Stephens on Iran, the U.S., and Global Stability
C
35:55Charlie RoseHOST
Well, he was one of the negotiators, the lead negotiator
B
35:58Bret StephensGUEST
was Rob Malley who was willing to bend as far forward towards Iranian demands as I think any American negotiator was.
B
36:11Bret StephensGUEST
I don't think the Iranians even deign to meet with American negotiators face to face.
B
36:17Bret StephensGUEST
The degree of contempt that the Iranian showed at the negotiating table, and I'm talking here with the Biden administration, not the Trump administration, was astounding.
