    I think the plan is:

    • Bomb them and kill their leadership (multiple times)
    • Hope the people use the opportunity to protest and create real electoral change
    • Say we won
    • Not call it a war
    • Not realize this is just a version of what happened Libya

    Not call it a war

    As I already noted above, Trump calls it an excursion.

    Reminds me of a field exercise I participated in when I was a serving reservist, Operation Whisky Jaunt.

        My fear is that Trump will just declare victory when the political cost gets too high for him to continue, then basically paint a bullseye around the state of things at that moment.

            In a speech this morning or yesterday he actually already said we won. He said "we won after the first hour."

            He never lies btw

              •Create drone companies for family members
              •Make incredibly fortuitous investment deals on oil prices
              •Win bet on when Iran bombing will end

                  They should drop all the pretense and just call the Department of Defense the Department of War... since all this legal mumbo jumbo is just for liberal eggheads..

                                  It will never not surprise me that we have a President that talks like that without any hesitation or repercussion.

                                    4 dead, apparently. Wow... very rare for one plane to escape when there's a mid-air collision.

                                      Sure fire sign that Trump isn’t coping all that well under the pressure of his excursion march into war with Iran:

                                      "No, we don't need (Ukraine's) help in drone defense," Trump said in the interview. "We know more about drones than anybody. We have the best drones in the world, actually."

                                      The comments come as an unexpected rebuff of Kyiv's offer to share its combat‑tested experience and technology for countering Iranian‑made strike drones with the U.S. and Middle Eastern countries.

                                      https://kyivindependent.com/trump-ukraine-drone-defenses/

                                      Trump can go fuck himself.
