How does a regime dedicated to destruction sell itself to the West? Meet Abbas Araghchi, Iran's Foreign Minister and a master of linguistic camouflage. Before the October 7th attacks, he spoke of "constructive engagement." Afterward, he praised the "resistance." This episode dissects the mechanics of his deception, exploring how he frames nuclear threats as technical disputes and military aggression as "self-defense." We uncover the strategy behind the mask: why the "moderate" diplomat is actually the regime's most effective propagandist.
