Did Bombing Iran Make America Safer?

On June 22, the United States launched what President Donald Trump called "very successful attack on the three Nuclear sites in Iran" on the social media site Truth Social. "NOW IS THE TIME FOR PEACE!" But did that mission make America—or the Middle East—safer? Is it really a one-and-done action or the start of greater involvement on the part of the U.S. military?

In this special live episode of The Reason Interview, Nick Gillespie talked with Emma Ashford, a senior fellow at The Stimson Center and the author of the forthcoming First Among Equals: U.S. Foreign Policy in a Multipolar World, and Faisal Saeed Al Mutar, the president of Ideas Beyond Borders and a non-resident fellow at George Washington University's Program on Extremism.
