Provoked with Darryl Cooper and Scott Horton

Darryl gives an update on the Martyr Made podcast and introduces Episode 2 of "Enemy: The Germans' War," which reexamines World War II through the lens of the German experience, aiming to foster empathy for the normal citizens labeled as the enemy, lumped in with their leaders, and highlight often-ignored human narratives. Scott and Darryl address the complexities of discussing this charged topic and its relevance today, especially in light of ongoing geopolitical tensions and military interventions. Considering the implications of U.S. military actions in Iran, Scott and Darryl stress the moral responsibility of warfare and the psychological toll it takes on soldiers and society. They encourage listeners to engage with these challenging themes and advocate for a more humane approach to decisions about war.

Darryl Cooper and Scott Horton interview Arta Moeini, Managing Director of the Institute for Peace & Diplomacy, discussing the implications of recent Israeli strikes on Iranian gas facilities and the potential for Iranian retaliation. They critique America's flawed strategies that overestimate the ease of regime change in Iran and explore Tehran's shift to a more aggressive stance. The conversation addresses the muddled objectives of U.S. foreign policy, concerns about escalating conflicts, and domestic political ramifications, including Joe Kent's resignation. Emphasizing the need for a realist approach to align foreign policy with American interests, they conclude with a cautious outlook on the situation's complexities and the importance of ongoing dialogue.
