Alan Dershowitz on Joe Kent and Middle East Tensions (11 min) | 03-19-26

Lawyer & Former Law Professor Alan Dershowitz joins the program to denounce former Trump administration figure Joe Kent as a neo-Nazi bigot and liar, rejecting Kent’s claim that Israel pushed the U.S. into the Iran war. Dershowitz argues that the current U.S.-Israel military action against Iran is a justified preventive war, comparing it to stopping Nazi Germany earlier and saying it will save countless lives by preventing Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons. He says polls show most Americans support Trump, the war, and opposing Iran, and criticizes extremists he links to Tucker Carlson. Asked about Trump’s support for Qatar, Dershowitz attributes it to personal rapport while acknowledging Qatar’s negative role and urging U.S. interests first. Learn more about your ad choices.
