YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

This was Maajid Nawaz's bullish response when a caller tried to claim that killing General Soleimani was like killing the Queen.

Kumar from Ealing compared the leadership in Iran with the monarchy and insisted that Iranians looked at the US airstrike that killed their top general as we would if the Queen had been killed.

But Maajid wouldn't take that, insisting: "In Iran, the head of state actually has real power. Does the Queen have a Revolutionary Guards Council that has direct military control? Not only over domestic affairs, but also over foreign policy.

"The Queen doesn't have that does she? This is insanity."
