Ep 4: The WRONG Way to Fight Extremists

Is OPEC an evil cartel? What mistakes has the Indian state made both in Kashmir and in our Naxal areas? What book should you read this week? What film should you see? Welcome to Episode 4 of Everything is Everything, a weekly podcast hosted by Amit Varma and Ajay Shah. In this episode, Ajay discusses why fears of OPEC manipulating oil prices as a cartel were always overblown. Amit speaks about how fighting guerrillas and militants is completely different from fighting a conventional war -- and how India keeps getting it wrong. Ajay then recommends a book that anyone interested in history or business or India should read -- and Amit raves about what he considers the pinnacle of cinematic storytelling.
