    My comment has nothing to do with it being like or not like Iraq. It’s about the war we had in Iraq that was pointless, costs billions, hundreds of thousands dead, and was for oil. Has nothing to do with the terrain, size, population or anything.

      This war is about the President being Israel’s bitch, if he can grab oil all the better, but no one expected to do so. They don’t have the capability for that short of a massive outlay that would end in fuckall. The military knows it.

      We won’t be invading with hundreds of thousands of troops.
