Here's the entire post you're attempting to quote. You mistakenly missed a few pieces. Thanks for the opportunity to clarify.
"Well since you brought it up. From an economic standpoint, I'm pro-war all the way.
War is good for defense contractors and all those "trickle down" subcontractors. This means war is good for employment and higher paying jobs. Which in turn is good for the economy. More people working means more people spending. War is good for the stock market, which means it's good for my investment portfolio.
Lots of good things come to Americans when we go to war.
Now the downside is that Americans are killed and wounded for reasons that don't have jackshit to do with preserving freedom or the American way of life or whatever else. But over the last 25 years or so of Middle Eastern, for profit corporate war, we've all learned that some dead Americans is a small price to pay for the good economic times war brings to us all.
In my lifetime, not one American serviceman has died for my freedom, but they've sure as shite died for my investment accounts.
Wall Street and every publicly traded defense contractor in this country thanks them for their sacrifice".

This isn't too far off. Although we wouldn't be carpet bombing Tehran. Just a Bunker Buster or 3 on the deepest nuclear sites, then just keep on trucking like it was just a massive drive-by. Even most Iranians would only know it happened because they saw it on the news. There's no need to put a single boot on Iranian soil.

No because the war will be going on after he leaves. Surely he has to know this will not be a quick mission.

One of the things to glean from this is to look how easily Israeli hackers disabled the wifi, banking and access to money, and cell service.
Prepare yourselves a little bit for cyber attacks and emp events and the like. Society would hit the fan. When that plastic card in your wallet is worthless it would be interesting.

That's right, no freaking exit strategy needed.
That's just a criticism for you leftist pukes.

It's going to be a disaster for the dead.
Us and Israel are just going to fly home.
I told y'all long before it started that Israel striking Iran was going to be like angels throwing lightning bolts.
They can't do nothing about it but die, no exit strategy needed.

The planes that drop the MOABs fly back home...easy exit.

Only true idiots think that anyone is invading Iran.

You may hate the people who chose to serve in the military but without the military and the people who create the weapons to supply the military your freedom would be in peril. Don't denigrate the soldiers who were wounded and died because they chose to serve.

I don't hate them. They have my sympathy. They fight and die for corporate interests, corrupt politicians who are paid off to support these wars, and wealthy influential foreign governments.
In my lifetime, not one single American soldier has died for my freedom or to preserve my way of life. But plenty have died for Raytheon, GE, Northrop Grumman, Halliburton and every other publicly traded defense contractor in this country.
I respect people who choose to join the service, and I hope they get something out of it. Before they join however, they just need to understand who and what they're fighting for.
They need to understand that as long as they're fighting a foreign war, they're not fighting to win. The United States Government and its corporate handlers have no interest in winning these wars. There's too much money to be made. Victory gets in the way of that.
On January 20th, 2025. The entirety of MAGA agreed that another Middle Eastern corporate war should not be fought for any reason. Now? Not so much.

The United States of America and her corporate handlers have no interest in winning a foreign war. Especially a Middle Eastern for profit war. To win a Middle Eastern war is to kill countless billions in future profit. The United States of America has a vested interest in keeping the Middle East unstable.
For decades now, the entire region has been cultivated for war. In fact, the Middle East brings nothing to the global table other than energy and war profit. Other than those two things, it's a worthless and burdensome region of the world and that now includes Israel.”) quote
Realistic as such relates to selfish ‘Profiteers’ who cloak their narcissistic enterprise as patriotic, albeit cynical. But only realistic if one ignores the inevitable collapse of the economy based on the fact that all the money spent and made was Fiat Currency and Debt based. The fools may believe they can take their blood money and head to a ‘cave’ somewhere while desperation and anarchy culls the population, but I doubt that will pan out, given the Spiritual dynamics. Though the Bible does predict this exact scenario. Most people think that their actions are just but that may not be the case if ALL Spiritual issues are on the table. I think it’s like Nicholson’s character that said “you people can’t handle the truth”. And that ‘Truth’ will indeed “appear in the clouds”. Nuclear clouds most likely.

How can you see the economic picture so clearly through all of those broken windows?
Posted on 6/19/25 at 8:56 am to Bronson2017
We need our spooks to get an undercard going between say Chad and Central African Republic so we can get a little action on that continent. Bunker bust something. Anything for that matter.
