By host Tom Ashbrook:

In the neoconservative camp that pushed for war with Iraq, Norman Podhoretz is a great patriarch, one of the old originals. But he's hardly out to pasture. He's a senior adviser to Rudy Giuliani. He counsels George W. Bush in the White House.

And here's what he's saying. We are in the midst of World War IV, a life and death super-struggle with Islamofascism. We should bomb Iran and anyone who doesn't agree is a threat to the nation.

Hawks love him.Critics say he's hysterical and dangerous. He's still pushing.

This hour On Point: Norman Podhoretz and the debate over his World War IV.
