The probem with the Iran war is not a lack of planning

Its that it was stupid to do it in the first place, and no amount of planning would have made this crime a good idea

And soon enough people will realize this was not just a US/Israel crime against the people of Iran, or Lebanon, or Gaza, or the West Bank but against all of humanity

@ekis the epstein war sits at the middle of a venn diagram between circles labelled "stupid", "evil" and "poorly planned".

@floatybirb @ekis

nothing to do with Epstein

that's a distraction from Israel

as long as people spread the idea the war is about Epstein, Israel gets away with corrupting US democracy

A sane administration would have done planning, realised there was no way it was going to work and told Netanyahu to go fuck himself.

True…

@ekis The problem is not that it is stupid in it's lack of plan. The problem is that innocent people are killed.

Why Dems Keep Saying Trump Has “No Plan” Instead of Calling to End the War With Iran

By critiquing the war because Trump has no “plan,” Democrats are avoiding standing against the war on moral grounds.

@ekis completely right. But I'm sure that we'll have an opposition candidate to Trump whose primary concern is "planning", strategy, tactics, whatever.
