“We’ve Never Bombed Our Way to Victory:” Adm. McRaven on the War with Iran

Season 2026 Episode 8151 | 18m 24s

Ret. Adm. William McRaven, whose military career spanned nearly four decades, oversaw the Navy SEALS raid that killed Osama bin Laden. McRaven's speeches -- like "Make Your Bed," for a graduation ceremony in 2014 — have become widely known, and he has collated many of them into his new book "Duty, Honor, Country & Life." The Admiral speaks with Walter Isaacson about his book and the war in Iran.
