Not for a lack of trying. The assassination of Qasem Soleimani was authorized by Trump and led to several direct attacks on each other and only stopped after Iran accidentally shot down a commercial passenger plane originating from their own country.
- _8j50 4y agoHe is the first republican in a long time that didn't start a war only because there were already two undrerway and his generals stopped him from starting wars. He was a DC outsider so he didn't know the war starting protocol I guess?
- AlexTWithBeard 4y agoWould be good if our next president doesn't know the war starting protocol as well.
- _8j50 4y agoNot if there is a good reason to wage a war. Everyone complains about wars but every war since vietnam had widespread public support at the time it was started.
- midoridensha 4y agoThat's not a good reason to start a war. The Iraq War (2003, not the Gulf War of the 90s) had widespread public support because the CIA fabricated evidence of WMDs to create that support.
