Robert MacNamara was the Secretary of Defense from 1961 to 1968. He talks about bombing Japan and whether it was necessary after burning Tokyo to the ground with fire bombs.
I haven't. I'll try to watch it later. Thanks.
This is a silver lining. We shouldn't rebuild anything there we should just leave.
Sure but how likely is a retreat? To me it seems like Trump can't win and he can't leave either. Only bad and worse options on the table. Of course I can't know how it will all play out in the end.
The Iranians know the kind of bad spot Trump is in and even if there was an agreement and a little lull in hostilities the war will resume at some point. Many speculate the war will commence after the midterms. Iranians seem to want it now instead.
Many who think Trump needs to crush Iran say this absolutely needs some level of ground invasion, but as Trump said, he doesn't think Americans "have the stomach for it."
