BREAKING: President Trump on who is winning the war. “Iran’s army is gone. Their navy is gone. Their communications are gone. Their leaders are gone. Their Air Force is wiped out entirely. Other than that, they're doing very well!”

I just learned that Iran is an extremely mountainous country. If anyone in Tel Aviv or Washington thinks they can beat Iran, they are mentally unwell. It's textbook impossible to defeat a mountainous country because ground troop movements will exhaust the invader. You'll be attacked by guerrillas coming down the hills, killing you all. This is going to be the US Army's Battle of the Teutoburg Forest. You are going to lose this. Mountains are why countries such as mountainous Switzerland also cannot be invaded. To know anything about military strategy, read Von Clausewitz's On War. The German military genius extensively discussed mountains as a 'retarding principle'—mountains slow down military movement. Mountains favor guerilla warfare and make decisive action impossible. Mountains favor the defenders. The invading armies are fighting literal uphill battles. Everyone at the Pentagon has lost their minds. I'm truly stupefied at the lack of functional brains among Western military strategists. What on Earth are you doing? I'm stupefied that anyone thinks the West can defeat Iran. No, you won't. Iran is protected by mountains. It cannot be defeated.
