Some very impressive turnarounds from what seemed like inevitable war from this administration, whether that's earlier with Israel versus Iran.
We've seen this recently in Venezuela.
It seems like giant conflicts have been averted.
We need to be praying for that here.
And I will say that there are a lot of people in the media who have basically made careers out of being wrong while trying to foment war, it seems.
We've seen this with Iraq and Afghanistan.
It does seem to me like a lot of the same cheerleaders for those wars are all gung ho for this.
You know, I'm not saying don't listen to these people.
Obviously, listen to their arguments.
Maybe, heck, maybe I'm wrong.
What do I know?
But maybe keep in mind that these are people who have kind of time and again been proven wrong when they advocate for direct military intervention boots on the ground with the promise that it'll be fast because it never is.
Well, just really quick.
Prior to the 70s, Iran was fairly modern and secular, especially by its current standards.
There was previous American intervention that some people say has kind of led them down the path to where they are now politically.
That's exactly what happened.
And I think with something like this.
That's exactly what happened.
Yep.
We just have to understand that there are a lot of knock-on effects that I don't always think are considered with intervention.
