Aaron Maté : Are US/Iran Talks Going Anywhere?

May 22, 2025.

Report: Aaron Maté on U.S.-Iran Nuclear Talks

In a recent episode of Judging Freedom, journalist Aaron Maté delves into the complexities of the ongoing U.S.-Iran nuclear negotiations. He highlights that while some progress has been made, significant hurdles remain. A primary sticking point is the U.S. demand for Iran to cease all uranium enrichment, which Iran views as a non-negotiable right under the Non-Proliferation Treaty. Maté notes that this hardline stance from the U.S., influenced by Israeli security concerns, has led to a stalemate.

He also discusses the internal pressures within Iran, including economic instability and political unrest, which make a deal increasingly vital for the Iranian government. Despite these challenges, Maté observes that both sides remain engaged in dialogue, offering a glimmer of hope for a potential agreement.

When the Body Says No – The Cost of Hidden Stress
By Dr. Gabor Maté

In a world that often demands silence from our pain and performance from our wounds, When the Body Says No is a clarion call for truth — the truth our bodies have been whispering, sometimes shouting, all along.

Dr. Gabor Maté, a compassionate physician and gifted healer of hidden sorrows, invites us into a deeper understanding of how emotional repression, unspoken trauma, and the relentless stress of daily life silently shape our physical health. With the grace of a storyteller and the precision of a doctor, Maté walks us through powerful case studies — from autoimmune illness to cancer — revealing the emotional histories that so often lie beneath chronic disease.

This book is not just a medical revelation; it is a spiritual reckoning. It reminds us that the body is not betraying us — it is protecting us, speaking for us, when we no longer can. And it challenges us, ever so gently, to begin listening before the message becomes a roar.

A guide for the weary, a balm for the burdened, and a truth-teller for a world too long in denial, When the Body Says No is more than a book — it is a return to the wisdom within.

Recommended reading for healers, caregivers, and all who carry pain quietly.
