The Pentagon and Trump Lost the Iran War, Failing to Accomplish a Single Justifiable Goal

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart

Trump claimed his primary goals for his unilateral decision to invade Iran remain toppling Iran's government, better known as regime change, weakening Iran's military, security and nuclear capabilities and its regional influence, as well as supporting Israeli interests.

Only one goal has been achieved: Trump gives his full support to his long lost twin, Benjamin Netanyahu, and the Israeli Army.

For Trump, this is nothing less than another failure. For the American people, it is a costly error in judgment. Three-quarters of all Americans oppose any military action in the Middle East.

TRUMP REMAINS A MAN DESPERATE FOR RELEVANCE AND A SINGLE SUCCESS IN A LIFE DOMINATED BY FAILURE

Trump failed in the private sector for more than 40 years. Only by cheating on his taxes, and accepting assistance from Vladimir Putin and the Saudi Royal Family saved his business “empire.” His presidency was the least effective in American history. Between 2017 and 2021 his only “accomplishments” were granting additional tax “breaks” to the super-rich and large corporations, allowing a deadly coronavirus to kill more than one million Americans as he told us “it will just go away,” and a failure to lead which placed our nation near a second Great Depression as the national debt rose and unemployment reached numbers not seen since the early 1930’s.

He also managed to commit treason on January 6, 2021, and  violated the Espionage Act with the theft of an estimated 14 boxes of national secrets on January 20, 2021. Julius and Ethel Rosenberg were executed in 1953 for the same crime.

Trump will never admit to his many, many mistakes. However, Trump supporters can. Trump’s illegitimate presidencies are the biggest mistakes made by the American people in our nation’s nearly 250 years.

It’s okay to do the right thing.
