JOE ROGAN (HOST): The problem is from the outside. Like, the rest of the world, you, you look at this unnecessary aggression by the United States government, and then you tack on whatever propaganda they have already been spitting out about America for the last twenty or thirty years. And then this war with Iran gets really ugly, because that's how you start a World War III.

You start a World War III by doing something that, other than people that wanted this forever, who else thinks that's a good idea? Who else thinks it's a good idea to just attack a country that isn't doing anything? They haven't done anything. Like, if you have proof that they have developed depleted uranium and they've got it up to a point where it's, they've got it to — what percentage does it have to be? Like, they're at 60, right?

KONSTANTIN KISIN (GUEST): But that's way more than you need. 

ROGAN: Way more than you need. right. So it shows that they're at least ramping up their production where it's possible to get it to whatever it needs to make it —

KISIN: That's way more than you need for civilian use. 

ROGAN: Right, right. But that's still, it's not clear that that justifies an invasion when North Korea has nuclear weapons, right? It's like, do we just want, we're just trying to prevent them from ever getting to a point where they're like North Korea? Who the fuck is worried about North Korea? Zero people.
