Col. Macgregor: ‘WAR to the LAST MISSILE’ – Trump Under DURESS to Escalate (Rachel Blevins)

President Trump has arrived in Ankara for this week’s NATO summit, and while he tries to project strength, the U.S. can’t hide from its growing weaknesses on the world stage.

Ret. U.S. Army Col. Douglas Macgregor noted that in both Iran and the proxy war against Russia in Ukraine: “We are in a war to the last missile.” He also emphasized that “we’ve strengthened Iran,” and there are growing concerns the U.S. will escalate to war, because he fears “Trump is under some form of duress.”



Good interview with Macgregor, conducted before the recent resumption of fighting vs Iran. The wars we are seeing, in Iran and Ukraine, and formerly in Syria, are neocon projects. It doesn't matter who is in office. They're all controlled. The best that can be done, right now, is to expose what's happening. In the long run these wars are backfiring on those that have perpetrated them, although at huge expense for everyone involved.
