That isn't what he's saying. To a two year old, that is what he is saying.
So what IS he saying?
Bc as I read it, what he's saying is that it's costing the average American family $1000 so far, and potentially $7500 in the long run.
It may be anti- Trump, but how is that anti- American?

Because it is just another in a very, VERY long line of incorrect predictions about the markets, all carried out by left-wing organizations staffing people with foreign interests and white women who hate America. This man also happens to be Iranian himself, so I'm not going to listen to any of his low-info incorrect predictions.
And I don't want to hear about the money. These are all unfathomable sums we hear about every day, all going to causes that nobody wants to see them go to. If it wasn't going to be spent here, it was going to be spent in some other way nobody approves of. And not one person here is ever going to convince themselves, let alone anybody else that the above statement isn't 100% objective fact, so drop it.
My track record is one where I'm usually right about nearly everything in the end. So I'm not open to any debates about how I interpret the "news" as they present it.
Thank you very much.

His part of the article in not a "prediction", it's an estimate of costs so far.
But even if he was way off, ALL military actions cost something. Deploying carrier groups ad infinitum and blowing a huge inventory of Patriots (at $1-$3 million a pop, depending on version) and Tomahawk missiles, getting our bases blown up, planes shot down, and all that jet fuel costs SOMETHING. And to attack Iran when all of his advisors (military, intelligence, political) were advising him not to, and only Bibi Netanyahu was pushing him forward... Only to wind up in the same (at best) strategic position as when he started?
It all sounds pretty stupid to me.
And then there's his big buget- busting proposal for the Department of War.
Somebody ought to tell him you don't get a first class military by throwing money at it willy nilly. The devil is in the details, and he's not a detail guy. So all you get is another 'get rich quick' scheme for corporations and politicians, just like AI and the 'solutions' for climate change and Covid.
*****
Come to think of it, that's pfir robably Trump's biggest weakness: He's not a detail guy. Doesn't think things thru, won't listen to those who have, likes to go for big splashy moves and noisy events, just like anyone with severe ADHD who needs something bright and loud to capture their attention.

Well I've already stated my piece, and nothing you have to say refutes any of that.

Well, you've made several arguments so, here goes...

about the markets, all carried out by left-wing organizations staffing people with foreign interests and white women who hate America.
Oh, you don't.
I know you're exaggerating, but that's not a real argument.

If this was posted by a white conservative male you prolly wouldn't listen anyway.
You don't listen to ANYBODY who disagrees with you.

So, in other words, we can't object in principle to money being spent on anything we disagree with bc (a) we can never know how much it is and (b) it will be spent on something else we disapprove of?
Well, in that case, you should never object to money spent on DEI or liberaloid NGOS or "the poor immigrants" bc (a) and (b).

I'm so glad you included the word "usually"!

Period!

So, that's me refuting your statements.
Peace out.

Well, seeing as Israel and the USA favor "regime change by assasination", it's no wonder Trump would be paranoid about it.
Like I posted, this is over when the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps says it is. Looks like they got Trump to torpedo his own ceasefire.

Quote:Iran was ruled by the CIA- and MI6-installed Shah Reza Pahlavi. Under his rule, altho Iran's oilfields were technically owned by Iran, consortium of oil companies controlled the finances and fraudulently extracted profits. The remaining profit went to the Shah and his hangers-on, and bc western money flooded a select grouping Iran but didn't go towards improving internalproduction, inflation went thru the roof. (Too much money chasing too few goods.) The Shah squashed discontent with the Savak, a brutal CIA-trained internal security organization.
