About this episode

Ben Shapiro reacts to news that Iran just launched a ballistic missile salvo at Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar, home to the U.S.’s largest Middle East command.  The Iranian attack comes as a direct retaliation for recent U.S. strikes on its nuclear facilities.  Ben breaks down what triggered Iran’s self-described “mighty and successful” counterstrike and how the U.S. and its allies are responding.


Listen now for a breakdown of how one misstep on either side could ignite a wider war, and how America is navigating this dangerous crisis.
