Former Congressman Peter King joins Sid for his weekly appearance on the program to discuss rising tensions with Iran, with Sid citing reports of increased U.S. firepower in the region and speculation an attack could come soon. King argues war is a difficult decision but says Iran has historically not kept agreements, criticizes the Obama-era deal, and expresses support for decisive action by President Trump if talks fail, referencing a prior rapid strike on nuclear facilities. King outlines that any U.S. operation would likely rely on air and naval power, with prioritized targets and precision strikes, while warning about unintended civilian casualties and other risks. Finally, he addresses concerns about Iranian-linked sleeper cells, saying Hezbollah has operated in the New York metropolitan area for decades, and claims the NYPD and regional security forces are aware, monitoring the threat, and have made arrests involving Iranian officials linked to Hezbollah.
