Billions of dollars wasted. 18Americans dead. Thousands of civilians and children in the Middle east killed. Our military stockpiles dangerously depleted. New wars in the region breaking out by the weak. The Strait of Hormuz and possibly the Red Sea now closed, controlled by our enemies. Gas prices skyrocketing, the global economy melting down. All of this for what? Nothing. Not a single war objective achieved. Not a viable path to achieve any of them in the coming months. (13:19–13:25)
