Are you, your children or grand children under arms? If not, why not?

Exactly ow are you going to contribute materially to this effort?

War is to be the last and only remaining option to failed diplomacy.

Note that I did not say we should do nothing, but having personally borne the scars of battle, and a parent of children who have done so as well. I see little value to direct engagement in any the most necessary foreign wars. If Iran can and does play by proxy, so ought we. Granted and alas, there are not many pro US entities in the region, and likely none with the will might and resolve to fix their problem, let alone ours ( even after a half century of US beneficence and largess, enough of that!).

If we must engage directly, then it ought to be with distant might. Punish the IRN govt mercilessly with remote weapons, setting foot on the ground only with the most limited and stealthy ( read SPECOPS/CIA) covert forces to direct internal actions of high payoff targets.

And if there is not immediate reonse by the people of IRN with aim towards overthrowing their masters, , then reduce the nations ability to shoot move and communicate physically, economically and morally to rubble and let IRQ/AFG etc fill the vacuum....

If anyone thinks there can be an end to these Moslem wars, they are sadly mistaken.

Meanwhile, our borders are critical, our foreign intel capabilities and economic strengths need to be restores, built and used to make the world America, whether the rest of the “civilized world likes t or not.

I am on the same boat as you. The Saudi’s can throw a million men at Iran. I don’t care where they buy them but it should not be the US military. Invading Iraq was pure stupid. Saddam was not a nice person, one of his sons was a retarded sado-masochist, psycho but Saddam controlled his Muslim trash. We invaded his country, because W said he was mean to his daddy. Yet the freaking Saudis are the true terrorists. We have problems here at home, i don’t want any more friends or family fighting for one rag head to beat up another rag head.

Bears repeating... Who knows, if we got out of the way maybe someone else could get a chance to stomp on them for a while...

And we happen to have our OWN domestic insurgency going on right now... A political party that just tried a coup on our lawfully-elected President, and who is intent on subverting and bringing us down.

Clean house here first and foremost.
