Maybe they shouldn't have gone on a rampage of death and destruction of at least 15,000!! sites across Iran. Or given 27,000 missiles to Israel recently without even congressional approval.

Maybe somebody should have planned. Or thought. Or said NO to the orange psychopath. But there is no one like that left in the Pentagon.
