Professor John Mearsheimer:
We’re not winning against Iran. We’re not winning.
We’re sending a message that we’re a bunch of fools. That we started a war we can’t win.
We didn’t have the required military forces to achieve any of the objectives that we were floating, and we had no plan.
What does this tell the Chinese and what does it tell the Russians?
It tells them that we are incompetent. Of course the Russians have had enough dealings with Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner to fully understand just how incompetent we are.
