I don't know if there's any such thing as a "fair" war, but sure...one on one, force to force, in a traditional war, they're not going to "defeat" the U.S.

But who the hell believes they will "respond" in a "traditional" manner?

Trump keeps making threats...doesn't matter if they're empty or not...and racheting up the rhetoric.

My guess is that Iran does not have a Pete Hegseth who will tip their hand before they decide how to counter Trump.

They don't play "fair."

Trump's reality show aggression should have every American deeply concerned.
