The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

So even if it's not in Israel's interests for us to stand down the war, or it's going to leave a gaping festering conflict if we stand down the war, as soon as Trump thinks it's in his personal best interests to declare victory and go home, he's perfectly capable and willing to do that.

Trump thinks?

What Trump thinks and reality are two distinct things.

Of course he will declare victory and go home, but unfortunately the reality is that Iran has a say in this and they are an anchor that is firmly attached to us for some time.

We’re dealing with ultra radicals who believe in martyrdom.

Or, as the saying goes, when you talk to God, it’s a good thing. When you hear God talk back to you, it’s a bad thing.

Ignorance almost never results in success. This administration is overflowing with ignorance, stupidity, and hubris. A deadly combination for American.

Sadly, even if we take our bombs and go home, Iran has tools to harm us.
