War is cruelty ,don't try to reform it the crueler it is the sooner its over .

When did it start?

Looks like a clear cut case of SD on a national scale. If more "wars" were fought this way there would be less of them. Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan = fail, fail, fail, fail because nobody had the balls to actually fight to win. Ymmv.

Lebanon’s official news agency also reported that solar energy systems exploded in homes in several areas of Beirut and in southern Lebanon, wounding at least one girl.

Absolutely right.

Its like these enemies are flies on a wall, we send someone over to try to stab them with a toothpick. They get bigger and bolder so we swap the toothpick for a pencil and repeat the same futile attempts to eliminate them.

We should send over several people with giant fly swatters and eliminate all the flies on the wall in one attempt.

War is over
Fewer good guy casualties
People think twice about becoming bad guys.

If you are fighting “Fair” in a fight, ANY FIGHT, YOU will lose. Afghanistan was a perfect example. The world has no stomach for “WAR”.

No it's lack of balls. If Hitler showed up today,we'd be speaking German.

The psychology of war certainly isn’t my area of expertise, but it seems we had more successful outcomes when we weren’t trying to make friends with the civilian population of the nations we were at war with.

Maybe someone with expertise can post about it.

The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.

How about : Do evil things expect evil consequences.

There's a fun film to watch about what they did after the 1972? Olympics. If half of it is true, holy cats.
Also very cool silenced bicycle pump zip guns.

I would say there would be more wars if that were the case... at least until everyone the globalists want dead is dead. Societies which have the capability would have no reason to object to endless war.

And just looking at Korea and Vietnam as examples: Were those wars intended to "fight communism"? Awful strange then that we've sent $6 TRILLION... along with most of our jobs, technology, and factories... to communist China via the trade deficit over the last few decades, even as we "prepare to go to war" with them.

Why didn't we just place an embargo on China like we did with Cuba? I'll tell you why: All you had to do is starve the Cubans, and they would float here by the millions. The Chinese, on the other hand, were going to need money for plane tickets. Starve one, fund the other, same result: They poured in.

Iraq and Afghanistan? We funded and armed them and kissed their asses first, then went after them because they didn't cooperate with the Bushes and their oil buddies. And hell, we had Iranian military helicopter pilots that my father was training over for dinner in the early '70s. It's all a farce. The conclusion I came to in the early '80s re: our seemingly inexplicable stance towards Chinese, using past examples as a guide?

We were building them up into a credible threat for a future confrontation or war.

REMEMBER: China didn't have a pot to piss in, until we gave it to them.

Yep... the Taliban "suddenly became the bad guys" after they turned down the pipeline deal with the "Texans".

a.k.a., "How we ended up $35 TRILLION in debt while getting overrun by invaders from Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan, and every other country on Earth, for that matter.

With "just in time delivery", they have a pretty good idea when it is being consumed, so that they can time it to sicken the largest number possible before someone makes the connection.
