Hey, that's some good taste in music.Just let me know when I should be putting on ‘Two minutes to midnight’ by Iron Maiden.
On the off chance this starts WW3, I’d like to die with some appropriate background music.

>Is war with Iran in US interest?
Very valid question.
>Asking that question to Douglas MacGregor of all people
That is an *extremely* invalid person to ask this question, as he's probably an actual FSB asset considering his certainly well compensated appearances in Russian state media like TASS and RT. He is also seen shilling Russia stronk (and dooming for any remotely western faction in any conflict) even on random youtube algorithm chaser channels, and obviously it's also exactly what he's doing in this video.
You may as well ask him if the war is in Russia's interests, he would be more capable to answer that, in a way he already did, that Russia wants to deter western countries from doing it, oh boy he tried to do a lot of deterring right there.
In fact thanks to the sheer amount of his commentary on Ukraine since the beginning of the war, combined with the extremely obvious nature of his predictions (Russia stronk, doom for others), we can check the credibility of his predictions with the power of hindsight, and i think that's enough to ruin whatever authority his credentials may have earned him.

Seriously, does the idea of describing what's in the videos you link cause you physical pain or something?
At this point, it feels like you're just filling threads up with spam.
Yeah, that colonel is a hack that knows nothing except the bare minimum to sound scary to thw right.
He doesn't really know what he js talking about in the aspect fi what we can do.
I can tell you what we can do and how we can easily destroy Iran.
It is VERY important to the US if we destroyed Iran.
It would basically allow us to have somewhat decent peace in the middle east

Is war with Iran in the US’s interest?
Yes.
You morons should have crushed them decades ago.

Peace in the MENA regions will come out when there are no US bases there.

You are profoundly mistaken I’m afraid. That region of the world would tear itself to shreds in very short order, and now the proto-Islamic Empire in the region would look to wage Jihad on America’s European Allies.
You can not opt out of the game of empires. This fantasy of the Right is incredibly damaging and must be put to bed.
I mean, is A-stan peaceful now?
No, they still have internal conflicts and are onfact hating thier lives.
Is Iran peaceful? No bases there.
No.
US bases are there BECAUSE of Jihad and Iran.
If we wipednout Iran our bases would leave.
So I take it back.
You may be right, but nit for the reason you think

The only fantasy is that anything done for Western elites interests is a positive net gain for mankind's, which could have been a good argument if there was a Warsaw Pact and Soviet Union to speak of. The same interests that promote the self-loathing of sovereignty and cultures from Lisbon to Vilnius (with varying degrees of success), those which allowed liberal-progressivism and abomination of the Frankfurt school to take root and recruit acolytes, the same foreign interests that wanted us to be prisoners in our countries and in our homes and wanted us destitute while at the same time poisoned or outcasted and have promoted mainly military age males to migrate towards Europe, Britain and Ireland and North America which in turn made live miserable for both natives and the assimilated immigrants who had come in previous generations.
By the way, the same people who want war with Iran are the same ones who promoted the Iraq War and lied, which in turn made plenty of NATO servicemen and personnel traumatized and with PTSD just to be abandoned by their governments like they abandoned the equipment in Afghanistan in 2021.
Frankly the best course of action for anyone, be it European, US or any part of the world really, is to sabotage the interests of their elites, which in this case is an invasion of Iran, just like anyone sane would do with regards to mass migration.
Hopefully, if you were to actually attack Iran, you would have not only the Iranians, but also many of their neighbors, but plenty of common folk like me to oppose them. With the current upteenth war in the Levant you have even more.
But probably the self serving cosmopolitan fifth columnists will do the job or your puppeeteer governments will do them as they fumble like Biden's ability to exist.

He is probably not going to survive.
I'm more of the opinion tha we need to cooperate with the Iranian Navy on a reef rehab project and future zero emissions program.
If that was too subtle...sink their navy, all of it, then wreck their shipyards and ports.
This is punishment for sponsor of terrorism.
If that doesn't get the point across, sever all oil pipelines that exist between Iran and everywhere else.

This take is a competitor for 'most disconnected from reality' I've seen on this forum, and that's really saying something.
Arab culture is a feuding, warring culture. There is a saying I've heard, because I grew up largely over there:
"My tribe against your clan. My clan against your clan. My family against your family. Me and my brother against my cousin. Me against my brother."
It's one of those things that's somewhat a joke, but also somewhat true.
Direct US involvement in the ME from 2003 to 2011 or so, made the middle east more peaceful. It was a damnfool thing to do, trying to tamp down on all those conflicts, but while the might of America loomed large, the conflicts dulled to a low simmer.
Once Obama had the US pull out, the violence exploded onto the scene almost instantly, and the bloodshed began anew.
The only way to make the Middle East Peaceful, is to either conquer it with a fury and totalitarianism that would make the Romans blush, deliberately wipe out the current culture of the local peoples and indoctrinate them into a different value system, or nuke the entire region into so much glass.
The best option, is to probably let them war with each other, and occassionally have some peace, as they please.
Look, I don't want war with Iran. Frankly, it's a stupid idea that will lead to us trying to nation build again. Instead, they fuck with us, we retaliate worse (i.e. another Sulemani hit, or sink their ships again).
The issue is Israel. If we leave, we'd be probably eventually condemning millions of Israelis to awful deaths. And as long as we stay in Israel (or even as long as it exists), they'll want to retaliate.
As a resident peacenik, lol no. There will be constant war, it just won't be our issue anymore. It'd be Europe's issue at worst. Now that we've changed procedures in regards to the cockpit of a commercial jet (don't surrender the cockpit, sturdy doors, and when the door is open, put the cart in the aisle), the ocean will protect America from most future retaliation.

This is the guy who said he wanted war so he could feel important.
