TRUMP: AL-SHARAA WILL TAKE CARE OF HEZBOLLAH, ISRAEL SHOULD LEAVE LEBANON - w/ Karen Kwiatkowski
"We have no army. To speak of. I don't care, you know, they keep saying, oh, we have 50,000 troops in the region. Really? Yeah. Where are they? What formations are they in? Well, and they're not all combat."
Kwiatkowski asserts the US military lacks the capability to prosecute the Iran war Trump has initiated, noting that claimed troop numbers are inflated with non-combat support staff. She warns that Marine Expeditionary Units offshore have no backup and would not survive engagement. The frank assessment reveals strategic overextension and suggests Trump is making threats the military cannot execute.
