‘Actually Stunning’: MS NOW Host Shocked By Trump’s Former Defense Secretary’s Blunt Critiques on Iran War​

What we’re seeing is a situation where targetry never makes up for a lack of strategy. And by that I mean 15,000 targets have been hit. There have been significant military successes, but they are not matched by strategic outcomes. Now, some of the strategic outcomes early on, unconditional surrender, regime change, we’re going to dictate who the next supreme leader is — those were clearly nonsense. Those were delusional and you don’t hear those bandied about anymore. There are some that have been achieved in the military realm. They no longer have a Navy of any note. They no longer have the numbers of ballistic missiles and the defense infrastructure they had before. But the bottom line is it is not matched by success in the strategic area, and that’s a bad thing. That means that we’re now in a position where either one side or the other side escalates, probably to be matched, and you saw that threat rise over the last 48 hours. It’s been pushed off five days. But right now, we’re in kind of a show me. The one side is saying, you show me that you’re willing to do something that we want. The other side is looking for the same thing in return, and neither one of them is making a move in that direction.

Jim is no fan of trump. We know that from his characterization of Don as possessing the traits of a fascist. I would love to see Jim debate the former Faux weekend host about the war.........or any subject really. He's known for being well read. Which automatically gives him a leg up on Pete and every other member of the regime.

Mattis reportedly tells Woodward that Trump is a threat to U.S.​

 
The same "Mad Dog" Mattis who went loco when Trump wanted to get the hell out of Syria and bring ALL the troops home?

Yeah, that jackass can eat a bag of dicks.
I don't remember seeing anything about that. I've always read that he's well respected and willing to do what's right not just what the government tells him.

His nickname turned out to be a joke. And his credibility was lost during Trumps first term.

More than anything else the trump clown show needs people like Mattis who have the temperament, knowledge, and experience to handle the crisis of the orange dipshit's making.
 
there have been great military achievements in the strikes on Iran, but they have not been “matched by strategic outcomes.”

Wow, how scathing!

The article claims Mattis is now for ESCALATION.

SO YOU LEFTIES AGREE ON ESCALATION NOW?

WTF? 🤷‍♂️

They lack reading for comprehension skills.

You mean Mattis got upset that Trump pulled out of Syria, abandoning the Kurds and the Agreement the USA signed to protect the Kurds if they fought ISIS???

That was a disgrace to the USA’s reputation and standing in the world. Mattis was correct in resigning over it.
 
America is split asunder and writhing like a mortally wounded animal .
Bankrupt and Bleeding .

What an end
Cheer up, Louise. Your mullocrats are close to another announcement that they’re winning the war against the Great Satan. 😀

The Iranian navy is a formidable force.
