if necessary...therefore, Trump and his mentor, Bibi, have opened Pandora's box. Sadly, IMO they both perceive the need for "Emergency Powers" in order to avoid loss of power and will stretch this war out for an indeterminate amount of time. The public doesn't want this war...Military advisors don't want this war (see comments from the Chair of the JCOS)...the stock market doesn't want this war...etc., etc.
Best way out is to ink a deal for JCPOA 2.0...ASAP...not going to be easy unless Congress asserts itself with veto-proof legislation to force the issue...time to put on the Big Boy Pants.
You also noted that a 50% increase in Defense spending was "Just Crazy"...hold that thought as you evaluate DJT's statements/actions...and post accordingly.
