Can I get one other person in media or politics to ask this simple question - why is no one in Washington considering using Israeli ground troops instead of Americans? Why is using their troops not even an option? @megynkelly @TuckerCarlson @MizzWelch @RoKhanna @RepThomasMassie

At the exact moment our troops were triaging the wounded from the attack at the Prince Sultan Air Base in Saudi Arabia, Trump was hosting an expensive get together with Saudi sultans talking about how wonderful everything is...and yes, smiling and doing his stupid jerk-off-2-dudes dance like it was a party.
He totally cares about you.

General Stanley McCrystal was the man who revolutionized counterinsurgency. His advice for the current war in Iran? Enjoy this part. It’s all going to get worse from here:
« We thought really early in Afghanistan that the people on the ground who we were targeting would be awed and intimidated by the bombing and that they would respect our capability.
In many ways, what we found—particularly with the tribal members—was they were disdainful of it. They knew you could bomb them, but they said, "If you're not willing to get down on the ground, look me in the eye, and fight me mano a mano, then you are not morally on my level."
And I think that we can't forget that people fight because of their passions. It's not a geopolitical calculation.
And so it is like what we found in Iraq. We could bomb Iraq pretty easily. We could even take Baghdad with relative ease. We could get rid of the existing government.
But once we wanted to change the reality on the ground—who actually controlled things, how things worked—now you're not at 30,000 feet. You're at six feet, and you're the same height as your potential opponent.
And I tell people about this war: 'If you like this war, enjoy this first part, because this is the best part.' Because everything after this will be harder, because it will be more equal. »
