What percentage of 18-year-old American men support the war in Iran?

Haven't seen the polling.

Imagine it's quite a bit below 30%.

Maybe even lower than that.

And by the time we get to a draft, you can be assured it will be even lower than that.

So that would be tyranny.

If there's another definition of tyranny, forcing people to die for a war for another country...

When your country is not even conceivably in peril of, like, invasion, except the long-term kind created by immigration, but an imminent invasion of foreign troops.

But, you know, we won into this war because Benjamin Netanyahu wanted us to, and it's not going well, and you need...

To fight that war at the risk of your life, even though you hate it and have never really understood what it's about because everyone lied to you about it.

And if you don't do that, we'll arrest you and put you in jail.

I think that's the definition of tyranny.

And simply because it's happened in the past doesn't make it any less tyrannical.

But don't take my word for it.

So I want to bring you now an interview that we did a short time ago.

with a man called Jim Webb, James Webb III.

And if the name sounds familiar, that's because he is from one of the most famous military families in the United States.

His father was Navy Secretary, a US Senator.

And Jim Webb, the man we're about to speak to, was himself enlisted United States Marine, third in a row in his family, a family that, as he'll tell you, has fought in every American conflict since the French and Indian Wars.

And we thought we would push him a little bit on what it would look like if those fabled boots on the ground that Fox News so badly wants to commit actually came to pass.
