“Iraq 2.0”?: Rep. Jim McGovern on Iran War, New Red Scare, Israeli War Crimes & Dem Party Divide

We speak with Democratic Congressmember Jim McGovern of Massachusetts, a longtime critic of U.S. foreign policy, in a wide-ranging conversation about Iran, Cuba, ending military funding for Israel and more. Last week, McGovern joined the entire Democratic caucus and four Republicans to pass a resolution calling on President Trump to withdraw U.S. forces from hostilities against Iran.

“It’s just like Iraq,” says McGovern. “We’re getting involved in a quagmire here, an endless war.”
