Rogan says the country would be in a different place had the US not bombed Iran a second time, and that most Americans oppose it.

Rogan says he understands Israel's motives for war with Iran but doubts it is good for America or that there is an exit.

“I get why they would want it. I just don't know if it's a good thing for America. And I don't know if there's a way out of it”

Rogan claims the U.S. has used a large share of its missiles in the Iran conflict, leaving it under-armed.

“two-thirds of our missiles doing it. It leaves us vulnerable if there's any other kind of a conflict. We're like under-armed right now”

Rogan says he opposes the Iran war because it lacks a clear resolution.

“I don't think it's a good idea. Why? Well, because first of all, it doesn't seem to have a clear resolution, right?”

Rogan argues that Iran's current regime exists largely because of U.S. and British intervention over oil.

“there's a really good argument that that terrible regime is in place because of the CIA and because of the United States government”

Rogan questions the timing and justification of the strike and suggests Israel exerted extraordinary pressure on the president.

“You blow up the leader during Ramadan. Are you trying to make an apology? Why did you have to do it now?”

Rogan argues that each new military conflict creates more enemies and therefore guarantees future conflicts that benefit weapons makers.

“the more these conflicts occur, the more enemies we'll have, which will ensure future conflicts. Exactly. Business is booming”
