If we can not start a shiny new war... One of our allies can... keep the fires warm.

This Trump thing shall pass, and we can get back to business as usual. If Trump wins a second term he will be forced to initiate this war, regardless. China ain’t there yet... They lack cohesion and numbers of hardened units.

Iran is begging for retribution. We probably own them too.

War in Iran should turn into at least a decade of horror, once we invade.

Good times.

My suspicion is that if Donald Trump starts a war he will will finish it as fast as possible...which means without mercy.

War against Iran ought to be STRIKE once, maybe twice... HARD... from afar. Then NO NATION BUILDING. Let their remaining dogs fight it out themselves. Hit them a third fourth fifth... etc... time as needs be. As BlueLancer said:

200 years from now, I want their children's children's children
to cower and cringe in fear whenever they hear the sounds of jet engines overhead
because their legends tell of fire from the sky.

I want them to hide in dark caves and holes in the earth,
shivering with terror whenever they hear the roar of diesel engines
because the tales of their ancestors talk about metal monsters
crawling over the earth, spitting death and destruction.

I want their mothers to be able to admonish them with
"If you don't behave, the Pale Destroyers will come for you",
and that will be enough to reduce them to quivering obedience.

I want the annihilation to be so complete that their mythology
will tell them of the day of judgment when the stern gods from across the sea
.. the powerful 'Mericans .. destroyed their forefathers' wickedness.
