No winners in 'all out war'

Any raining of bombs is the first step toward loosing.' This act must be followed by ground forces.' Terrain Variations will influence events.! As will populace actions Among beligerent and invaded parties.' In a brief analysis ' what happened with the English invasion of Ireland?? Long term.!! Bearing in mind 'both nations close proximity' Then extrapolate that in regards of any conflict with Iran Or any large middle eastern power.!! Any sane assesment Screams no!! If Mr Trump is considering any such moves I advise breaking ties with any force that advocates such.' Which is most likely an ( n g o ) backed by scoros and co ! As it was in Afghanistan for Russia and the USA and as it Has been in Syria for Russia..so it will be in a similar war Let there be peace.' War is counter productive.'

I couldn't have said it better myself, Joe. War is infinitely counterproductive. Sure, one side has more casualties/collateral damage than the other, but in the final analysis, both sides lose.

In a war, there are no winners, only losers. Though one group may declare themselves as winners, they might have lost more than they can recover. Let peace be our motto and our slogan. Well expounded thoughts dear Joe.

So true Joe, it's only the innocent who suffer. If the politicians had to go to war, there wouldn't be any wars. Tom

A response to work with Tom 'I shall focus on your word placement' of innocent.! As it impinges Upon not only those who Must again be 'pagan sacrifices??' Yet also those who will be primed By t v & radio outlets to give their moral support to the (glorious conflict intended) remember how Con-vid was 'war themed?' I leave it there Dear Sir..I leave it there.)
