He’s a hawk, though. A war with Iran would be an absolute disaster.

She’s a new character who they called ‘the biggest new part’ of episode 8. There’s a little more information about her, but since you’re avoiding spoilers..

To clarify, I was not arguing that we should close our eyes and cover our ears when someone uses the Quran to justify their violence, nor was I arguing that Islam can not be interpreted in a violent way.
