Glad he remembered that people die in wars and it doesn't just hurt his money.  

The real danger here is that the massive presence and aggressive moves in the Gulf trigger an "incident" which requires a "reponse," in an environment where SA and Israel may feel the US will have their back, whatever they do.

Trump has created a situation in which conflict is very likely and it will be hard for someone like him to back down.

And remember, most of the "adults" in his FP staff have quit or been pushed out.
