Israel’s overnight attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities and missile factories has sparked fears that WWIII may be imminent. While the White House played no direct role in the strike, President Donald Trump suggested that Iran had brought the attack on itself by resisting an ultimatum in talks to restrict its nuclear program.

For what? Enlightenment?Oh lord.Naturally, I had a million questions for Melissa Febos, author of The…
