15,000 targets struck in Iran, Hegseth says

Lebanon is near a “breaking point”; U.S. temporarily lifts Russian oil sanctions




You have heard that it was said to those of old, 'You shall not murder, and whoever murders will be in danger of the judgment. 


The pen strokes and utterances of a leader have consequences.  There are human heartbeats on the other end of them.  Were there to be  a higher judgment then every life lost by a line item is a life to be answered for.  Regardless of justification.  If there is a judgement, Trump is a crispy critter.

Trump may be unable to end the war he started with Iran, even if he wanted to

Amman  —   A war that is “won” but also “not finished yet.” An “excursion” that requires Iran’s “unconditional surrender.” President Donald Trump’s rhetorical knots fit well with his style of dictating America’s information diet, but fall flat when they hit the gritty reality of conflict.  The “win” in war is not as it is in sports: a score does not declare the victor after a previously agreed duration. The bravado and gamer-style videos of the US government as it pursues its assault on Iran belie the extraordinary seriousness of an intractable moment: how far do the Americans have to go, not to just declare “we won,” as Trump did Wednesday in Kentucky, but to make Iran behave as if it has suffered a defeat?


If "winning" the war means we'll have more regular terrorist attacks, less safe shipping & air travel and higher  oil & food prices, Trumpoolini's Operation Epic Fail war can definitely be counted as a raging success.  Sadly, noone besides the Mad King himself would use those metrics.

As always, Trumpsky's narrative has little connection to reality, he  merely thinks whatever he says and wants to be true is the truth, and in his own mind once he has said it, it becomes the truth.  In everyone else's mind however, it becomes quite difficult to accept as the truth when bombs continue  exploding and people continue dying after the victory.

The reality is this war has always been even more impossible to "win" than Afghanistan or Vietnam was.  Anyone with even a rudimentary understanding of history and geopolitics knows this, but that's irrelevant when you have an ideologically driven moron backed by a loyal following of even stupider MAGAotts running the show.  Terminating his Presidency ASAP at the earliest opportunity is the only chance we have of avoiding WWIII.
