ARE FOREVER WARS A CHOICE?
You might have thought you had a busy weekend, but Saturday was barely just hours old and Trump had already killed Iran’s Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
His death, along with dozens of other top officials, occurred in a barrage of American and Israeli ordnance you’ve certainly heard about by now. The shooting has not stopped since. Iran’s military has been shellacked, but not annihilated. It’s launched dozens of counter attacks targeting Arab civilian structures and US military personnel.
Make no mistake about it, Washington is firmly in a new war. As the first handful of American KIAs and WIAs roll in, the primary questions for now are for what purpose and at what cost?
Personally, my stomach for subduing rogue actors, killing bad guys, and limited displays of military might is decidedly more robust than the loud minority cohort on the right that thinks it speaks for “MAGA.” And they are decidedly a minority.
