I wasn't around in the 19th century, so can't compare.

This war is a war that we can't win and it started that way out of the gates. I can understand wanting a regime change, but there are other ways of doing it.

Maybe a reduction in weapons is a worthwhile cause, if he would have cut and run after a few days. There would have been no winners or losers and arms would have been reduced a bit. Now he's in a hot mess with a closed Strait of Hormuz, Israel is doing it's thing and is controlling the war. It's basically a brick wall. He really can't walk away from it either because now Iran has the upper hand!

Can't believe he started a war with big bad Iran and now we're losing.......

I think Trump under estimated the big in big bad Iran....

I read that Netanyahu made it sound it was gonna be fairly easy and they had the Shahs' son waiting in the wings!
That's just crazy. Reza Pahlavi would be executed in 10 minutes if he tried to enter Iran.
