Stefan Molyneux of Freedomain goes on an epic rant about the recent escalations between America and Iran - and takes your questions!

In 1953, a CIA guy named Kermit orchestrated a coup in Iran because the Iranian government had "nationalized" British oil companies.
This coup was later used as a pretext for the 1979 coup that installed the Ayatollah.
Iranians know all this.
Americans generally don't.
America has spent $5 TRILLION on the War on Terror.
The number of terror attacks worldwide has skyrocketed.
A Wall would have cost 0.1% of the cost of the War on Terror.
So:
More terrorism.
Staggering debt.
No Wall.
America has 800 military bases around the world.
U.S. commandos are deployed to 75% of the world's countries.
U.S. foreign policy is largely a money-laundering scheme for the military-industrial complex.
Here is the basic truth:
A country allowing a million immigrants a year cannot afford to antagonize anyone.
Washington DC has staggeringly high levels of crime.
Politicians can’t even fix communities right outside their windows.
Don’t worry though, I’m sure they can totally fix the Middle East.
This is how weird foreign policy is:
The current US president just killed a guy driving around in a car probably paid for in cash by the last US president.
Sometimes you have to (temporarily) settle for "better."
Circumcision is better than castration.
Drone strikes are better than ground wars.
I remember being on @joerogan many years ago and talking about taking out military leaders as an alternative to war.
A lot of eye-rolling at the time.
If you don’t get drafted...
You’re welcome.

Don’t worry folks.
The real danger ..
