Trump's top military man not happy abut attacking Iran

If it's true that General Dan Caine, chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff, Donald Trump's top military adviser, is unsure about the wisdom of attacking Iran, will the president listen to him? Trump doesn't like to be told what not to do, he wants to know how to do what he wants to do. So, General Caine better watch his step if he's warning that a strike on Iran might not be that easy. Well, of course it won't be easy, especially if the objective is to end the regime and turn Iran into a western-loving nation. You can't do that with a bombing campaign. It;s not the wyt it works. But what Caine seems to be worried about it is the likelihood of a war spreading throught the Middle East and lots of people being killed in lots of countries, including Americans. Everyone in Washington is trying to tell Trump that Iran won't be another Venezuela. But I guess Trump knows that. But the key thing here is, Trump wants a quick in and out war where the damage is so great for Iran the ayatollahs will concede and all will turn out fine.Then along comes his top military man who says, no, Mr President, it won't be like that, it could go aon and on and, by the way, we're pretty low on arms because of Ukraine and the previous op against Iran eight months ago. So, a long campaign against Iran could seriously reduce stocks. None of these arguments will hold water if the president is determined to hit Tehran hard. He will expect the Pentagon to deliver the goods, and to stop whingeing. PLEASE BUY AGENT REDRUTH, MY NEW SPY THRILLER. AMAZON, ROWANVALE BOOKS, WATERSTONES.
