the 1 percent and their media lap dogs will not see any combat action. They won't have to do any of the hard work or any of the dying.

My brother explained all this to me in 1973. Not much has really changed in 42 years. We still have a media that demonizes any foreign power on their "what's crappening?" list.

In the meantime, the rich got richer, the environment is being destroyed, and its curtains for the middle class...so forgive me...I don't care if the Iranians develop photon torpedoes and teleportation...they are zero threat to America. Our wounds are self inflicted. Remember the Maine, Gulf of Tonkin incident, 911. There's probably something in the files they can use on Iran the same way. Enemies everywhere!
