I would rather pray for victory. Victory is better than peace...it's what creates peace.
As for astrology, the biggest problem I've seen in analyzing situations is the bias of the astrologers. Most astrologers are on the Left and their predictions reflect this. Being objective is always a challenge in life, but especially in that field.
Quoting: Blue State Rebel How do you see a "victory" after a nuclear war? What is going to be left then?
I don't believe there is going to be any nuclear war. But I guess you don't get my philosophy. I don't CARE if there is a nuclear war. My philosophy is "Thou owest God a death." We are ALL going to die anyway. Everything that lives on the planet IS going to die at some point. Our human lives are not that long anyway. You cannot live in fear. The only thing we have to do in life is the RIGHT thing. And to me the right thing is to STAND YOUR GROUND. Defend yourselves, defend others and STAND YOUR GROUND. Fight the bad guys, if they kill you....you're gonna die anyway, you died doing the right thing.
I cannot understand people who live in fear, I just can't. If you die tomorrow or 30 years from now, what difference does it make. What matters is HOW YOU LIVE and what you STAND FOR.
Too few people now have courage. It's a quality we have to find again. You can't really live life effectively without courage. So don't worry about nuclear war - if it's meant to be, it will be. But don't let bad men push you or the country around out of fear.
You don't believe there is going to be any nuclear war but US can only "win" using nukes. Time to start thinking deeper!
That's not true. What amazes me is how quickly people go to extremes now. It's what they accuse TRUMP of and actually his responses have always been quite measured and reasonable. He has not done any wild, militaristic things, and I'm astounded at how so many people have "blown up" this death of a international terrorist who was responsible for the current attack on our embassy in Baghdad.
There could be many layers of "winning". To me the first layer is......don't cut and run after killing Solimeini. It was INCREDIBLY STUPID for the Iranians to back attacking our Baghdad Embassy because it gave Trump a reason - actually a NECESSITY - for staying longer. The more inactivity there was in that area, the easier it would have been for him to PULL OUT, which I believe really is the goal that he (and I) desire.
We should NEVER NEVER NEVER have been in the ME at all. From our interfering in Iran's elections, to allowing the Ayatollah to return, to Iran Contra (selling arms to Iran under the table), to the first and 2nd Iraq wars....we should NEVER have been involved in any of this - it's all wrong and destructive. But....it was done and supported by all the same people who now attack Trump. Both politically and in the media.
I do believe he wants us out of this area and so do I. PERMANENTLY. Let them fight among themselves. BUT....if we are attacked as we were at this Embassy and we fight back by killing the main instigator and we are then threatened by retaliation.....WE MUST STAND OUR GROUND. To run or cower would be seen as an inducement for the Iranians and other groups to become even MORE bullying and violent towards us. When a bully threatens you, don't run - you encourage him to attack him more. When he sees you won't run, and you've already bloodied his nose, most bullies back down.
Iran will do what it always does. It will blather and boast and threaten and then it will get its proxies to do sneaky evil shit that Iran won't do directly. Because.....that's Iran. And if they want to do more....I would not want to face the naked might of the US military and Trump, unlike other POTUSES will not hold a leash on them. If Iran really really wants to fight us in a nuclear war, then they would become nothing more than a grease spot on a map.
I would advise them to back down and shut the fuck up. The sooner they do this....the sooner the US will be able to leave this area. WHICH IS THE GOAL.
