Genocide or Hyperbole?

from The American Mind Podcast · host The Claremont Institute

Over Easter weekend, as the Iran War approached its sixth week, Trump reissued his ultimatum to Iran: open the Strait of Hormuz or face complete destruction. This week, the guys take some guesses at what Trump intends for our adversary, and what is to come long-term. Meanwhile, amid the conflict, heroes have emerged—most recently in the harrowing rescue of an American airman downed behind enemy lines. Plus: updates on the amazing, ongoing success of the Artemis II mission to the moon. NASA is back in the game.Recommended:6 Takeaways From the Story of Trump’s Decision to Go to War With IranWatch with video on Youtube This is a public episode.
