    The murder of General Soleimani triggered as response an Iranian missile attack on a US military base in Iraq. The US military was warned of this attack in advance, but failed to intercept the missiles. There was major damage and injuries, yet no retaliation at all. It clearly showed how weak the empire is, and arguably accelerated its deline.

    So if that clown wants to repeat the mistake, but against a much more powerful country, it would be catastrophic for the US. After all it would be a declaration of war, and any US military base near China (eg in Korea, Japan, Indonesia etc) would suddenly be a legitimate target for retaliation. Same goes for aircraft carriers, which have no defense at all against Chinese hypersonic missiles.

    All in all this is a good example of how clueless “experts” in US media are.
