This podcast episode examines Iran's network of militias, known as the Axis of Resistance, and its support for these groups in the Middle East. Iran's involvement includes providing weapons, funding, and training to groups like Hezbollah, Hamas, the Houthis, and others that share a common opposition to the US and its allies, such as Israel. The episode discusses the complex relationship between Iran and its proxy militias, including the contract between them that gives Iran agency to provide support but also allows the militias to act independently.
