And this is why you don't want to get into this situation in the first place.

Why anybody who had a hand in this can never be forgiven because what they've unleashed already to not only the damage to our credibility diplomatically, our standing in the world.

I mean, you know, I remember how many of these neocons used to talk about

America's humiliation after Afghanistan and how that encouraged the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

Let's say that that's true, which I don't even think it's fully true, but let's say it's partially, it had some impact on it.

What do you think if you're China and Russia, any of these countries looking at how the United States just held up in a very limited ballistic missile exchange with Iran and think, and then our own, you

to stand for a war of choice like this, what are you going to take away from that?

You're like, wow, this is much easier than we ever thought it would be.

This is why this is really, really bad.

And we also see the escalation that continues.

Let's put A10 up here on the screen.

Iran, just yesterday, they struck a chemical complex in the Negev Desert, which is linked to white phosphorus production.

So the ballistic missile program is there.

They're hitting targets in Israel.

Chemical complexes causing a huge blast.

What does that mean?

Why does that matter?

Because the interceptors are running low.

They're able to take out more critical infrastructure.

And when you can take out critical infrastructure, you can take out interceptors, you actually become the great boogeyman threat that the Israelis always said you were.
