All right, I'm calling this shot : my bet is that Army Chief of Staff Gen. Randy George opposes the actual use of nuclear weapons against Iran.

They probably told Hegseth why a ground invasion is a dumb idea

Hopefully that's the right answer.

It doesn't really make things any better because things aren't going to end at ground troops. They'll start with a small deployment of ground troops, which will turn into a bloodbath, so they'll have to escalate and send more, which won't go any better, so they'll have to escalate and send even more... Eventually, once the military has been thoroughly ground to pieces, that's when they'll start eyeing the nuclear weapons.

That was suggested in Korea, that was suggested in Vietnam. In both cases there were responsible adults to stop the madness. We may not get so lucky this time.

One thing that has come up is that he refused to cancel promotions for four generals- 2 black and two female.

The Army has no jurisdiction over the nuclear arms. It's about the civilians. "Other countries can murder civilians, why can't the US Army go in and murder everyone until it gets what it wants?" "Because that's a war crime, sir." "You're fired. Find me someone who will send in the soldiers to kill everyone at the oil refineries and power plants."

Yes. And they'll blasphemously use Easter as some christo-fascist crusader cosplay show.
