Small gripe session about our actions against Iran.

 Am I the only one that feels like this fight against Iran is a bit half baked and lacks a true sense of purpose except that "we don't like Iran so we gotta hit'em"?

I've noticed something that seems to be accelerating since the war in Afghanistan.

We are reverting hard to the old Vietnam metric of numbers killed to explain to the public HOW we are doing in the war.

You saw that same shit in Afghanistan.  You see it on an almost daily basis in Ukraine.  You saw it in a limited way with the strike against Maduro.  Now you're seeing it in the fight against Iran.

What have I heard about why we have to fight Iran?

1.  They must never have a nuclear weapon.  They've been on the verge of having a nuke for damn near 25 years now.  

2.  Iran is the biggest state sponsor of terrorism.

3.  The Iranian people are yearning to be free.

4.  The Ayatollah is evil and must be killed.

If I give you the benefit of the doubt on all of the above AND ADD that the most serious part of this whole scenario is that they must never have nukes then why would we strike them when the peace talks were reportedly going well?

I can't put my finger on this one and maybe I am going PUSSY but this fight just don't feel "right".

From the dustup in Ukraine when I've seen many exit ramps blocked by so called allies that dung their fangs into the floorboard and wanted the fight to continue despite all the promise that peace talks potentially had all the way up to this one.

These fights just don't feel right.  Even worse.  I think they go against the President's own instincts in this area and its like he's being given advice that goes against his own take on things.

Conspiracy time so don't laugh too hard at me.

I'm really locking into the idea that there are groups of people that lust after warfare and will influence the engagement of nations against nations for the benefit of themselves and not the people.

Sounds stupid I know but I can't find another explanation.  With that I mean if they had a good rationale for these actions they'd be shouting it to the rooftops but instead they give us elementary school explanations of why we send our people to kill or be killed and wait for influencers to sway the public.
