Quote from Random.Capital:
The war "helped" because it destroyed the industrial capability of the opposition.
Wars don't help at all when it's your own factories getting blowed up and your farm fields being set ablaze, which is what would happen in another "world" war.
And being seen as weak is a very dangerous image to project to the world.Quote from pspr:
Obummer doesn't have the the balls to attack Iran. I doubt he will even retaliate if Iran launches a terrorist attack on the U.S. or Israel through their proxies or even directly. The World knows America is weak with this President.
