Good thought. That would get the stupid idiots that were fooled by caligula to be fooled by him again. They are so desperate, they will do anything to stay in power, even if it means they go off the deep end. I can see caligula tossing a nuke for an October surprise if he believes that will keep them in power. Everything is on the table, even the most radical, insane possibilities.
Unfortunately that is a real problem. IMO, Iran isn’t as large a problem as MEXICO is. We need to absolutely stop the invasion. They are on our territory. Iran isn’t.
But Caligula will declare war on Iran because a)they’re not liked by anybody including Caligula’s Saudi overlords; b)he mistakenly thinks it will swing many of the conservatives (we all love war, doncha know) to his side and c)war will stimulate the economy (unfortunately there is often a stimulus with war contracts).
