So About That 'Forever War'.... Kevin McCullough

So About That 'Forever War'
Kevin McCullough

Well… this is awkward.

For the last several weeks, the usual suspects in media and politics have been breathlessly warning that President Trump had just dragged the United States into yet another “forever war” in the Middle East.

You heard it everywhere.

“Quagmire.” “Another Iraq.” “No exit strategy.” “Endless escalation.”

The experts were certain. The pundits were smug. The critics were unified. And now?

Now, the same president who supposedly launched a “forever war” just ordered a pause on further strikes because… the war might already be ending. Oops.

According to multiple reports, President Trump instructed the Department of War to postpone planned strikes on Iranian energy infrastructure after what he described as “very good and productive conversations” aimed at a “complete and total resolution” of hostilities.

Let’s translate that into plain English: The guy they said was reckless just used overwhelming force to bring Iran to the negotiating table—and now might end the conflict in a matter of weeks.

President Trump also does not care to do the heavy lifting for an ungrateful and uncooperative Europe.  tri22

The Trump haters, Right and Left, won't buy it.

He just can't be allowed to win, because their seething hatred is a jealous monster that must always be fed.

Every victory must be denied, and every setback must be magnified as a disaster.

The man has his flaws, as do we all. But he has balls of steel, undeniably loves America, and drives his detractors to distraction and his haters into paroxysms of fury.

Success is often a matter of will and courage, as opposed to words and opinions.

For too long, we have suffered a shortage of the former, and a surplus of the latter.

Some time ago I came across a bit of wisdom that I think you might appreciate:

"Some people suffer from a constipation of ideas and a diarrhea of words."

That is gastrointestinally metaphoric, but I like it. :beer:
