Episode description
On October 6, 1981, Egyptian President Anwar Al Sadat was assassinated by members of the Islamic Jihad during a military parade in Cairo. What kind of statesman was Sadat? And why did his leadership cause so many Egyptians to feel abandoned by their government? Aamer and Erin discuss Sadat's life and death, along with his habit of social climbing, some creepy marital affairs, and his wormish tendency to sell out anyone he no longer found useful.
