War is a tactical error
"This suggests a principle that ought to be obvious but apparently is not: any nation powerful enough to mount a serious military campaign is, almost by definition, powerful enough to pursue its interests through diplomacy, economic leverage, and strategic patience. The return on investment of war is almost always catastrophically negative compared to the alternatives. Even when you win."
#SunTzu says, and I thought to this day it was compulsory canon in all militaries;
War is fundamentally about winning through preparation, strategy, and deception, rather than sheer fighting. The "formality" or true art of war is securing victory in the "temple" (through planning) before the physical battle, where supreme excellence is winning without conflict.
None of the clownshow that the #iran #Epsteinwar is shows there was any planning...or even any reading involved.
