The world order is shifting.
Old alliances are fraying and new ones are emerging.
Some of this turbulence can be traced to decisions made in the United States.
But the US isn't just a cause of the upheaval.
Its politics are also a symptom of it.
So we hope you enjoy this episode.

In the past few weeks, the U.S.
military has launched a steady stream of airstrikes in Syria.
U.S.
officials say they're targeting the group known as the Islamic State, ISIS, in part its retaliation for an attack on U.S.
forces in the region last December.
Secretary of War Pete Hegseth calls new airstrikes tonight in Syria a declaration of vengeance against ISIS terrorists.
These strikes also come against the backdrop of a recent jailbreak in which more than 100 militants escaped from a prison in Syria, raising fresh questions about the security and fate of ISIS detainees.
And so now the U.S.
military is in the midst of transferring up to 7,000 prisoners from Syria to Iraq because of instability and infighting.
From the BBC, I'm Asma Khalid in Washington, D.C.
And today on The Global Story is the Islamic State group having a resurgence in Syria.
Well, Josh, it's wonderful to have you on the show.
I'm a big fan of your work, so thanks for joining us.
