Former CIA analyst Larry Johnson is quite sure there is no “grand strategy” or “4D Chess” going on.
The US–Israeli coalition war against Iran is just a rolling disaster (academics would call it “path dependent”) in which one bad decision leads to the next.
By now a ground invasion with US boots on the ground appears inevitable because they already went through the build-up of the forces – so you gotta use ’em.
But what can they do? And what will happen once Iran then obliterates them? Well, buckle up because this is ain’t gonna be pretty.
However, the noble men and women in Washington allegedly still manage to game the markets and make a lot of money while we are waiting for the troop build-up to be completed. What a horror show.
