WaPo: Troops Going Into Iran

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

It absolutely boggles ones mind that we are on the verge of sending ground troops into Iran for no discernible reason, other than the reckless impulsiveness and lack of situational awareness of one man.

Will this escalation reduce tensions in this region? Will our good buddy Israel join the fight? Will they bring their military objective of targeting civilians in Gaza along with them?

This is one of the worst military positions we've ever been in, as there is not only any reasonable chance of success, there is not even a good chance of any outcome other than more bloodshed, turmoil, and a worsening of global security that will affect the entire world.

We are the world's most belligerent nation, barely ahead of Israel.

Who said that? The article says the Middle East. We have troops all over the place there already.

Reading is fundamental.

I think that, bottom line, Trump couldn't care less about his cult now. He doesn't need them any more. And don't forget that MBS is supporting this.

Trump's personal wealth has exploded during this term (yeah, that's not supposed to happen, but we no longer have rules or standards), and he sees money here. I have no doubt that some pretty big "deals" are happening right now, in conjunction with the military buildup.

Link?

WaPo Announces that Trump is going to put troops on the ground in the Middle East just as every GOP president has done for the last 40 years.

Do you support it?

I'm not totally against it. It may be necessary. Whatever it takes for regime change. Iran has been a threat to the world for almost 50 years now.
