Donald is told that he should not attack Iran, so of course he will.

There will be a short program of airstrikes which he will say totally obliterated everything.

*** First Time in American History: US Sends Fighter Jets to Israel in Order to Attack Muslim Country ***

"Twelve American F-22 Raptor fighter jets landed at an Israel Air Force base on Tuesday evening as tensions in the Middle East continue to rise and uncertainty looms on the Iranian front.

The F-22 stealth jet, which is operated only by the United States, is considered the world's most advanced air superiority fighter. Although no longer in production, the aircraft is so highly classified that the US Department of Defense has not made it available for sale to any foreign government.

In prior years, the US took pains to avoid highlighting how closely it worked with Israel."

I do not know if James Mattis or John Kelly drink, but I would imagine times like these, when Trump threatens to cause a wildfire of war, that reminds Mattis and Kelly of their time keeping Trump mostly rational...and if they indulge...they shake their heads and take a sip and look to the skies imploring fate to let us survive as a democracy.
