It’s one of his predictions there mouth, I never made it up...
If we keep the fat cat politicians out of the war, then our military would most easily win a war with Iran. If we don't keep them out, then it'll turn into another cluster Fork like it does everytime politicians are involved.

Iran would be like a ant being stomped by the US if things got heated.........
I just hope Russia, China and EU is in on it.
Either way, the only one foolish enough to use nukes would be Iran imo.
Right. Just like we could win in a week in Iraq and Afghanistan. We’d be welcomed with open arms by the people and the oil profits would pay for the war. Right?

They are not my predictions...
Well I'll tell you mine.
The west will most likely seek conflict given the trend. It will cost a few hundo billion or a cool trillion or five.
We'll lose a few thousand troops, and at the end it will be sold as a success while we're in a stalemate. A few of the objectives will be accomplished... But by the time the public wise's up to the reality, it will be a stale subject, an "it is what it is" kinda thing.
I don't understand. Are you disputing what I said? None of that seems very relevant to what I wrote.

You can say that. That still doesn’t account for the fact that more Americans are killed by friendly fire than lost to enemy combat. More die from suicide than from both of the former combined. And there’s still the massive costs associated, medical costs, abandoned veterans, etc. And then there’s the effect on the worlds economy If Iran makes the straits impassible, which is a high likelihood. The worlds economy would collapse, which the us would probably see as a bonus as they’ll be pushed back to the only world power again as they were after ww2.
Sure.
