You ever heard the phrase 'Bleed the Beast'?

USA/Western strategy is failing to overcome this widely known Empire ending counter strategy


Ya it looks like if it lasts a year it'll cost nearly 1% of our gdp, real empire ender.

Try turning your resolution up from 640x480 and you'll see more of the picture.

Pay that one no mind, they still think Trump is in charge.
Can you imagine being that obtuse?

This morning:


>Trump announces there have been talks with Iran and delays infrastructure strikes by 5 days
>Iran denies any talks

Looks like Trump is trying to calm markets before open. Even if not true it somewhat indicates that Trump may TACO out at some point.

Unfortunately, Bleed the Beast is not a mystic Eastern Asian war zen concept or flavor of the day talking head analysis. Surprisingly, it's described in liberal arts programs when covering ME relations and is very well understood. A swift Google search would describe it more. It's a compounding effect, an attrition play. USA has been battling that strategy not for one year, but for about three decades in the last 40 years.

That’s the problem with him. That statement could be 100% true or 100% made up. He could escalate further within the next hour, or he could blame someone else for writing it.
There is just zero predictability with that guy right now, for foes and for allies alike.
