Shawn Ryan & Palantir Co-Founder Debate the War in Iran

The gist

1. Lonsdale argues waiting 10 to 20 years while Iran develops nuclear weapons and long-range missiles creates far greater risk than acting now.
2. AI intelligence systems can fuse hacked cameras, logistics, and communications data to identify targets and enable strikes like Israel's 500-target operation in 20 minutes.
3. Ryan says failures in Afghanistan and lack of transparency on issues like the Epstein files give citizens good reason to doubt official claims about Iran.
4. Interceptor costs have dropped from millions of dollars to around $5,000 per unit, and scaling production could strengthen the US position against China.
