It's definitely for war.

But WHICH war?

You'll lose another generation if you send them to fight in the desert again, mixed if they had to help defend South East Asia from China but You'll have a MASSIVE spike in numbers recruiting if the only war under Trump is against the cartels..

Gaza, the West Bank, and Iran

Gaza I still don't know about as it seems like he may have done the classic 'I'm going to say shit to stir the pot' Trump thing like with Canada being the 51st state. He isn't putting action behind it like he did with Panama.

Iran, doubtful as he seems to be doing the same kind of tactic that go him closer with North Korea. You show your boss then negotiate through strength while respecting local customs. Something A LOT of US leaders can't understand compared to an international businessman.

Even if it did come to war with Iran, we have already seen that they cant do shit to our aircraft (via proxy by the Israelis), and all we would have to do is destroy the key targets and let the massive anti-Regime sentiment we always see bubbling below the surface make Iran Persia again. All without us having to put a single boot on the ground (other than the usual "get in, get out" Operator-shit types).

Uh, did we forget we're sending military to our border to defend it?

More likely than not Trump is going to wage war against the cartels.

There's going to be a lot of performative moaning from Fuentes losers and ESL morons who"ve been wrong for years but are absolutely certain we're going to start a war with Iran on behalf of Israel. Nothing will ever make them stop moaning about it. All we can do is call them retarded constantly.

They've already spent the last 24 hours willing to pretend the entire last month never happened and we were all scammed by Trump.

Because apparently he, and the rest of us, apparently have the same one track, one issue mind they all do.

Completely addicted to losing. They see everything that's gone on in the last three weeks and start throwing insane tantrums because we haven't started terror bombing Tel Aviv. They're worse than the "pro-life" activists who tried to get people to vote against Trump because he wouldn't commit political suicide by running on outlawing abortion from conception.

Meanwhile, most of what we are looking at makes it seem more likely we are preparing to fight the Cartels (which would mostly be wet-work Operator type shit, so doesnt really matter for grunts), and deterring China (which is a popular position with Americans). If it did come to blows with Iran, we have already seen there is fuck-all they can do to stop us and would more than likely leave it with some key targets bombed and then walking away (like Trump did with Syria).

Then the Iranian people can sort out their own mess, probably overthrowing the Ayatollahs in the process and making Iran Persia again.

I don't know about "popular" but it seems highly unlikely that we'll get in a naval war with China any time soon.

For it's Tommy this, an' Tommy that, an' "Chuck him out, the brute!"
But it's "Saviour of 'is country" when the guns begin to shoot;
An' it's Tommy this, an' Tommy that, an' anything you please;
An' Tommy ain't a bloomin' fool -- you bet that Tommy sees!

probably a combination of both actually. The Democrats hemorrhaged military morale to the point otherwise military-minded people flat out didn't want to join. we are probably seeing a correction with the new administration, combined with a ramped up recruiting effort.

Trump was allowed to win so easily in part because he would drive recruitment better than any Dem.

Exactly!

When he met with all those rabbi's in October, I knew he had promised them Iran. I knew he'd "win."
