Founder of the Warrior Defense Project LTC Jeffrey Addicott spoke with Joe ‘Pags’ Pagliarulo this week to discuss Iran, China, Russia, and the new anti-American alliance emerging in Asia.

“Why is Joe Biden focusing on Syria?” asked Pags.

“We have small bases throughout the region,” explained Addicott. “The Iranians want to spread their tentacles to develop a greater Iranian sphere of influence. They don’t want us in Syria.”

“They attack our bases to get us out,” he added.
