America and Iran: Another Forever War? (Half the Answer #69, with Jeff Waldorf)
The United States and Israel have dropped bombs on Iran, killing Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, several of his top-ranking officials, and many civilians, among them more than 160 little girls killed in the bombing of the Shajareh Tayyebeh elementary school. Trent and Caitlin have Jeff Waldorf, the Logical Leftist, to hang out with while they process it all. They talk through the conflicting, nonsensical, and sometimes straight-up Orwellian justifications provided by US politicians for initiating a war of aggression against another country in the Middle East.
