Speaker Johnson recently said, w/no hint of irony or indication of knowledge of the relevant history, that in Iran, the 'mission is nearly accomplished.'
We have a mocking slogan ...

Trump/MAGAs keep saying Iran operation is not a war.
The obvious, but never-asked, follow-up question is:
'How do you define war & why doesn't this qualify?'
See how easy that is, press?
'Using the same definition of domestic terrorist that you applied to Pretti & Good, can any or all of the J6ers be described as DTs as well &, if not, why not?'
'He attacked my fist w/his jaw'
exactly
battle of fundamentalists shaping up
3) whichever way it goes, much blood will flow, unfortunately.
2) (& necessarily lengthy) course of a possible cure, which itself will be very painful (perhaps even more so than the disease itself) & will ultimately result in: a) a benign cure; b) the development of an even more serious disease; c) or the retrenchment of the existing cancer.
If they choose #2,
1) IRANIAN REALITY
Iran is riddled w/engrained cancer (an unholy combo of absurd religious fanaticism & cynical violent criminality), which is deeply & thickly rooted in all aspects of its society.
Its options are 1) continue to suffer w/the existing disease; or 2) embark on an alternative

4) arose in those prior wars that we (erroneously) labelled 'endless.'
We need a more accurate adjective here; 'stupid wars'? 'poorly planned wars'?
3) starting of that war.
The use of this misleading term 'endless war' now allows those who advocate for, or enter, similar such wars to deny that their war is 'endless,' because they foresee an end to it. But foreseeing an end to a war doesn't mean we won't encounter the same problems that

1) ENDLESS WARS
No war has even been 'endless.' Every war ever started has ended at some point, as will any wars currently going on.
'Endless war' is the misleading term we've all come to use for wars that 1) went on much longer than predicted by those who started them; 2) didn't go

1) Whataboutism does not rebut the merits of the argument to which is responds. To the contrary, it implicitly concedes those merits. The basis of the whatabout response is, 'I can't contest the accuracy of your criticism, so I will accuse you of hypocrisy
How long before Rs in Congress began demanding release of ALL the Epstein files, to distract from the news about Iran?
