I'm sorry but you're not understanding it all. This war has been justified for decades. I do mean decades, about a terror-state that the West keeps giving a chance to grow out of it. And they don't. It's LONG overdue.
You're tired of war. I'm sorry. So is everyone, but finishing it and ending the threat is the only way even a temporary peace is achieved. Thank God for President Trump. He sees right through the nonsense, and isn't worried about getting approval from the western elites (even the ones in the US) who have wussied us into this dreadful state.
Even if regime change is not effected - the abilitly of the terror state to continue non-stop attacking the world, Israel, and the US is greatly deprecated.
Finally... main reason no. 2. - if we are going to avoid a kinetic World War III, then it will only be by taking apart the allied dictatorship. That's a fact. Russia and China have already succeeded in neutering Europe, and while Europe has awakened from its self-imposed stupor (we'll see), well it will take a few years to get them back to full strength. So they're hoping the US won't be able to handle a 4-front war (Russia, China, North Korea, and Iran). SO - taking down one of those adversaries (not pontential but actual) goes a long way, towards FIRST - deterring World War III and second, winning if it gets to that.

The legitimacy of Trump's deeply unpopular regime now seems to rest entirely upon an interminable war with vaguely defined enemies. I truly believe that peace is not an attractive option for him. Why do people continue to treat his actions as normal. On BBC radio an hour ago journalists were describing Starmer's refusal to allow America to use British airbases for offensive operations (on the reasonable grounds that Trump has persistently broken international law and will eventually be judged by an international tribunal) as somehow aberrant, while Trump gets a free pass because might is right.

Just a little point of order for Trump & Hegseth. No bombing campaign in History has ever caused Regime change, without boots on the ground following. The specific thing Trump promises wont happen. In fact, history shows that civilian bombing actually steels resolve and unites the people. The London Blitz being the most famous example. I dont believe for a moment that minds sharper than Trump have not explained this to him...😷

@jshm2 Your true understanding of the real situation is evident. This blow out of the US defence budget will drain stocks of very expensive and hard to source weapons systems that will cripple Americas ability for some time and add to inflation and ultimate demise of the $US as the reserve currency..😷

I saw a video showing how regime change has only worked twice with Germany and Japan, the others all failures as the current "effort" will be. I subscribe I think to the idea that they're all following a pre-planned plan :( If they can believe their precious bunkers wouldn't be safe maybe they'd think differently about their beyond sicko plan.

A useful video you need to watch.

@therighttothink50 Thank you for the (very long) clip. Helped me a lot with not watching Lawrence O'Donell today. It's the same but in the other way. They can say it nicely and with great sincerely but one needs to retain criticism. Told Lawrence once that he was dead wrong about Biden's leaving Afghanistan and that his novels had already been removed from libraries. I loved the Green Book. I've come to the conclusion that it's not really a generation thing but an experience value lacking. I knew my grandparents who lived through two world wars, one major depression and one reconstruction. Having known them, well, it helps. I like Reagan a lot. His book with letters is amazing. Hate that recent movie about him though. It's not only that there's no gravitace but there's also no experience element present. I hope that I still make sense. Yes, I'm a left-leaning conservative and I hate Trump for what he's done to the Republican Party
