Probably for a generation.
This is what makes Trump's behaviour of late so frustrating.
Quite happy to send a SEAL team in to a foreign land for a nonsense endeavour but when there's a real opportunity to oust a dangerous regime possibly permanently (given that the entire world knows how they've encouraged and backed terrorism in the middle east since the Sha's overthrow in '79) he's not interested.
Probably because it would mean the need for boots on the ground.
That probably wouldn't play well at home and he's short on friends he could call on to help share the load having been so aggressive in his tarrif strategy.
