"Karl answered that 'nobody questions the success of the military operation, the concern is what happens next.'
'Forget about next,' Trump answered. 'They are decimated for a 10-year period before they could build it back.'
'We’re marching through the world,' Senator Lindsay Graham (R-SC) told a laughing Maria Bartiromo of the Fox News Channel this morning."

"The US has a longstanding tendency to see wars as one-sided affairs, with American protagonists, American victims, and a cast of disreputable and/or sympathetic non-American side characters. This is perhaps most obvious in the mass of Hollywod Vietnam war films, of which only rare exceptions include a non-American main character."

"The Trump regime certainly frames the war in Iran as a particularly boneheaded and un-nuanced Hollywood film along the lines of 'Rambo' (1985). ... Perhaps even more tellingly, the White House X account posted a video collage of clips from the war intercut with footage from Hollywood action, war, and superhero films."

Hundreds of people are dead, mothers and fathers, daughters and sons, including scores of children who made the fatal mistake of going to school that day. Six U.S. soldiers have been killed. They are also dishonored by that social media post."

/12"In just over a week, Trump and top administration officials have given at least 17 different responses about why the war began. ...
Hegseth has described the war’s mission as 'very very clear' and 'laser-focused.' Rubio said the war had 'a very clear goal' and he didn’t understand why there was any 'confusion.' Leavitt said that Trump had laid out 'achievable objectives.'”

/13"House Intelligence Committee Chair Rick Crawford on Fox: 'We have been at war with Iran since 1947.'
… The Republican talking point is to claim that Iran has been at war with us for 47 years, so Trump’s bombings are just a continuation of that and are being done in self defense. But Crawford got it a little confused trying to follow the script."
