When Japan attacked Pearl Harbor FDR memorably called it a day that will live in infamy. It galvanized the American people like nothing before in our history.
What on earth makes Trump and his minions think that his sneak attack on Iran will do anything but solidify the people of that country, including especially those whose relatives have been killed and whose homes have been destroyed, to react in anything but the same way.
What on earth makes Trump and his minions think that demanding unconditional surrender from a culture that glorifies martyrdom and vengeance will do anything but create the sort of nightmare scenes that the U.S. military experienced in WWII Pacific campaigns if he puts boots on the ground.
What on earth makes him think that having his Little Fighting Cock Pete Hegseth call for a war where no quarter is given (ie no prisoners will be taken) will do anything but ensure the deaths of any American soldiers captured during this war.
When Liz Cheney said that one day Trump would be gone but the stain of dishonor would remain on Republican leaders forever, she was referring to J6. That was before the Epstein coverup, before the crass corruption of the Trump family, before this ill-fated war. The word dishonor is no longer a strong enough a condemnation of Republicans who lack the courage to confront this demented president and his sociopathic secretary of warmaking.
The Grand Old Party of Honest Abe Lincoln has mutated into the (lower case gop) gutless obsequios puppets of pathological liar Donald Trump. There is more backbone in a bowl of chicken noodle soup than there is in the Republican party leadership.
When they screw up the economy especially when there’s a war involved it is just the method they use to move wealth from the bottom to the top. A lot of corporate criminals got rich from America’s wasted war starting with Vietnam. They based Vietnam and a theory called the domino theory.
They based the waste and wars in the Middle East on weapons of mass destruction that never existed. War makes rich people wealthier.
The taxpayers spent close to $2 trillion and these Middle East wars and that money went in somebody’s pocket didn’t it?
The analogy with Japan’s attack on Pearl Harbor and this Iranian ‘excursion’ is they both were perpetrated whilst negotiations were in progress! Equally treacherous!
"Greatest god-damned, can-do country in the world!"
And yet, the words I heard decades ago, but didn't believe, keep ringing more true each day....
"The Great Satan" 😥😢

Trump is a traitorous embarrassment and extreme threat to our security. This should be the non-stop mantra.
