Trump's Worrisome Iran Gamble: Risks Include Navy Carriers Spread Thin, China Countermoves, US Debt

The United States dare not attack Iran! If we do attack, we will incur grave risks both within the Persian Gulf theater of operations and worldwide. This video ranges over all the risks but pays closest attention to those risks that have received little attention, so far. The strain on our military forces worldwide, our shaky alliances, unsettling Communist Chinese countermoves and the dire US national debt are examined.

SOME QUESTIONS TO ASK IN COMMENTS SECTION
What about the lack of strategic surprise, if we attack Iran now? Observing that we had the element of surprise when we attacked Iran last June, but don't have it now, is this reason alone to refrain from attacking now? Is the President actually engaged in a gigantic exercise of bluff, not unlike a quarterback trying to draw the opposing defense offsides? What is more dangerous: Red China's "asymmetric" (non-military) moves or the harm it could inflict in a shooting war? Does the US suffer from a shortage of surface ships equipped with ballistic missile defenses? Is it really possible to resolve the debt crisis, without succumbing to a depression?
