Jane Koston: 作为主持人,我观察到以伊局势持续紧张,以色列对伊朗核设施发动大规模袭击,双方互相发射导弹和无人机,造成大量伤亡。特朗普总统似乎确认了美国对以色列行动的支持,但同时也引发了美国国内对是否应该介入这场冲突的辩论。我对美国再次卷入中东战争感到担忧,特别是考虑到伊拉克战争的教训。我认为,特朗普政府的政策并不清晰,这加剧了局势的不确定性。 Lindsey Graham: 我认为现在是结束伊朗这个最大的恐怖主义赞助国的时候了,我们有机会通过替换现政权来永远结束对以色列的威胁。我相信伊朗人民会是最大的赢家。虽然任何行动都存在风险,但我们的军队是为了保护国家安全和让世界变得更美好而参军的。 Marjorie Taylor Greene: 我坚决反对美国全面介入以色列-伊朗战争。我认为那些鼓吹美国卷入战争的人不是“美国优先”的支持者。我们已经厌倦了外国战争,不应该为了外国的利益而牺牲美国的利益。我希望看到和平,而不是更多的杀戮和破坏。 Tommy Vietor: 作为Pod Save the World的主持人,我认为以伊冲突的根源在于内塔尼亚胡长期以来将伊朗发展核武器视为对以色列的生存威胁。内塔尼亚胡一直想摧毁伊朗的核计划,但没有提供确凿的证据表明伊朗即将拥有核武器。我认为以色列的行动会损害其国际地位,并可能导致中东地区更大的混乱和危险。MAGA运动内部对美国是否应该介入这场冲突存在严重分歧,一部分人反对,另一部分人则希望特朗普采取更强硬的立场。我认为美国应该尽一切努力防止伊朗获得核武器,但这可能比以前更难实现。

Shownotes Transcript

Tensions continue to escalate between Iran and Israel as the two countries swap missile fire. Israel claims to have killed multiple high-level Iranian officials and has asked for US military support. President Donald Trump is making posts online that vaguely gesture he might give it to them while Republicans argue about whether we should get involved. Pod Save the World’s Tommy Vietor joins the show to try and make sense of all the chaos.

And in headlines: A New York City mayoral candidate is arrested while court watching, Department of Homeland Security flip-flops on worksite immigration raids, polls show nobody likes Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill, and Kraft-Heinz removes dye from its products.
