The President of the United States said the Iran War would last four to five weeks a month ago. While he will no doubt equivocate about the timeframe if the war lasts longer than five weeks, we all hope it ends as soon as possible.
As Mark Twain is reported to have said, “history doesn’t repeat itself, but it does rhyme.” America seems to be falling into the same national ego trap as it did in Vietnam and Afghanistan. This time, America is being led by a man who promised to keep the country out of wars. In fact, shortly before the war with Iran began, he was openly bribing and goading the world to be crowned with the Nobel Peace Prize. Maybe they should have given it to him?
This video demonstrates the problem of asymmetrical warfare and starting a war against a foe on their home turf. America is spending billions each day bombing Iran and intercepting Iranian missiles and drones. While America’s overwhelming military superiority is damaging Iran, Iran fights back with cheaper, more dispersed weapons. The goal for Iran is like the goal for Vietnam and Afghanistan, which was survival. This is almost identical to America’s Revolutionary War. Americans did not need to win the war against the mighty English over 250 years ago; we just needed to survive.

Worse than stupid and moronic. Asinine and incredibly wasteful. Murderous and immoral. The sad thing is that I just listed Trumps best attributes, it just gets worse from there. Pathetic!
