In a first of a series of interviews on the Iran war we spoke to Senator @tedcruz and asked him: - Why did you advise President Trump to attack Iran? - What is the end goal? - How do you respond to critics like Tucker Carlson, Joe Kent and others who say America was dragged into this by Israel? Our job is not cheerleading or fear-mongering: it's sense-making. As you will see from our upcoming interviews with @ProfessorPape (Wednesday) and @mehdirhasan (Friday), we will be covering this conflict from all perspectives.
