Meanwhile, Iran war

Nothing says Quagmire, like we have to kill all of them

Not sure why we haven’t learned our lesson.

I’m pretty hawkish in general but also know we have to be practical and learn from the past. That’s been my concern with this war from the jump.

So we’re negotiating with leaders we don’t recognize
Taliban 2.0
Great stuff

Yeah, there’s that too.

Negotiating with the Taliban without Afghanistan’s legitimately elected government at the table, and effectively throwing them under the bus, was one of Trumpp’s BIGGEST follies.

That said, at least Taliban leadership was always fair game. No one had qualms about dropping bombs on them.

I don’t see why other terrorists that helped kill Americans like the Ayatollahs Ahmajenidad should be treated differently.

Yep, seems like a pretty silly argument to make

People should fight their own battles.

Saying so is like doing something when bad things happen.

Starting at 9:30 it gets very interesting

Care to give us a summary of what we might find interesting there?

I’ve found ā€˜interesting’ to be a very subjective term in this political forum.

Well, that is because ā€œinterestingā€ is a subjective term in all respects - not just on Coogfans or with politics.

What I was asking is what is the it that Coach V thinks is very interesting that we would get from watching the video, like what is he trying to share and add to the discussion besides ā€œhey go watch this random 2 hour video I choseā€.

Interesting

The dismantling of the British Imperial system

The relationship with Erdogan & Turkey

What’s being left out of the Iran and Ukraine discussions

Among others

Let’s not go too far into anything in that video. It’s highly political.

Not really. Strictly geopolitical/global economic strategy

Just like deciding what is interesting or not, deciding what is politcal or not is also subjective. This thread is full of politics, when not insulting the participants.

Come on, it’s very partisan. No need to argue about it though.

High level is fine, but stay away from the clear politics.
