Good read on this. It’s summed up nicely with comparing this to assassinating a head of state.

Oil is up 4% after hours.
 
Re: Global War on Terror 9: Winter Is Here.

So basically, if the analysis on this is to be believed, Trump just ordered the assassination of the Archduke.

I hope there is a good strategy in place for keeping Maine safe because we are the only corner of the country left completely undefended.

I wonder how many Pubbies will change their minds on Dump if he starts the war they insisted Hillary would start.

I'm going with zero.

They'd have to have been raised with any semblance of personal integrity for that to be the case.

They're fine with sending their sons off to war as long as a manly-man Pubbie is in the White House, and not some weakling Dem female.

I was told by Timothy A that Trump was saving lives in Iran...apparently Jesus lied to him.

Exxon must be sick of 60 dollar a barrel oil prices
 
Re: Global War on Terror 9: Winter Is Here.

1. Stepped into North Korea. Met with North Korean leader. Got nothing in return.
2. Moved Embassy to Jerusalem. Got nothing in return.
3. Got out of Iran deal. Killed Iranian leader. Got nothing in return.

Yep. He certainly is transactional.

With Iran as well.

Our adversaries have been moving faster because nobody wants to miss this window when the US has no leadership. I expect all the bad actors will do everything they can to win themselves another four years of free rein.

Free rein.
 
Re: Global War on Terror 9: Winter Is Here.

Our hope for peace is that Trump's soul-defining greed overcomes his publicly affected belligerence when the stock market starts to tank, and he gives away the farm to make it stop. Either way, the only two outcomes from here are that Iran wins or everyone loses.
