988: Why the War on Terror NEVER Ends


Listen Later

Is America really making the world safer... or just making a mess with your money?


For decades, we've been told we're “spreading democracy” and “liberating the oppressed.” But what if those good intentions have led to nothing but chaos, extremism, and an eye-watering national debt? In this episode of The Brian Nichols Show, we peel back the layers of American foreign policy and ask the uncomfortable questions no one on cable news wants to answer.

What actually happens when the U.S. props up dictators, funds rebel groups, and tries to play World Police? Brian is joined by political analyst Connor Vasile for a brutally honest breakdown of the situation in Syria—and how it mirrors decades of failed intervention in places like Iraq, Libya, and Afghanistan. You’ll hear how these “humanitarian missions” often lead to more violence, more extremism, and fewer Christians and minorities left alive.


But it’s not just Syria. We take on America’s uncritical support of Israel, explore the shadowy wishlist of Middle East regime changes, and examine whether U.S. military aid is making things better—or just fueling the fire. This isn't about being anti-Israel or anti-America. It’s about asking: what’s the real cost of these endless foreign entanglements, and who’s actually benefitting?


You’ll also hear why fear sells better than facts, how our leaders use emotional manipulation to justify military spending, and why Gen Z and Millennials are (thankfully) starting to push back. We even touch on New York’s socialist mayoral mess and what it reveals about selling policies through emotion, not logic.


If you're tired of politicians using your money to blow up sand while ignoring problems here at home, this is an episode you cannot afford to miss. From blowback to budgets, this is foreign policy stripped of all the fluff—and rebuilt with real talk, real strategy, and a vision for putting America and liberty first.
