Interview: Trump’s Criminal War on Iran and Religion

In this interview, I expose the false pretexts for Trump's war on Iran and the role of religion in the violence.

Apr 8, 2026 | 0 comments

Last month, I had a great conversation with Nico Lagaon on his podcast about the irredeemable corruption of the “public health” establishment and so-called “health care” system. Watch it here.

Nico had me on again to discuss the US-Israeli war on Iran.

I broke down the pretexts used by Donald Trump to justify the war, revealing at length why they can’t possibly be the real reasons. Then I explained that, to Trump, the problem was just that Iran was disobedient. Iran acts too independently of Washington, so it had to be punished.

For Israel, it’s weakening of a regional adversary that stands in the way of Israel’s continued takeover of the land and expulsion or extermination of its indigenous inhabitants, which of course is a policy goal that the US government has long supported.

I explained the importance of the petrodollar system for financing the US government’s debt.

Then Nico shifted gears and raised the topic of clashing cultures and religious beliefs. His expressed the view that sometimes people of different cultures should just not live together.

I expressed the view that it’s possible for people of different cultures and religions to live together peacefully in a society, but the problem is you have lawless governments and religious extremists not only in Islam but also Judaism and Christianity.

Our conversation begins at about the 29:50 mark in the above video.
