  • Escalation Trap

    Just because Putin changed course doesn’t mean he avoided escalation trap. If anything it means he is recognizing he is an escalation trap. Brandon should read more of Pape’s definition and examples to understand what he is talking about.

DEMS HAVE 12 POINT LEAD AS IRAN WAR KILLS GOP IN MIDTERMS - w/ Charlie Sykes
Q: Do you agree with that, or do you still think it's up in the air?
Sykes says Democrats could win the Senate, potentially reaching 53 or 54 seats, but warns that poor candidate choices and vulnerable races could undermine their chances.
DEMS HAVE 12 POINT LEAD AS IRAN WAR KILLS GOP IN MIDTERMS - w/ Charlie Sykes
Q: Where do you think, where do you come down? We'll just kind of start at the big picture. Generally, how bad do you think it's going to be for the GOP November?
Sykes says the signs point to a major Republican loss, citing voter anger, early voting, Trump's campaign activity, and polling, while cautioning that he is skeptical of optimistic forecasts.
BREAKING: U.S. BOMBS 2ND IRANIAN MISSILE LAUNCH UNIT, ISRAELI JETS APPROACH BORDER w/ Larry Johnson
Q: Do you think the Iranians, if the Americans and or Israelis reopen the fight, that they will target electrical and energy infrastructure of all combatants? I took that to mean that we're talking about not just the Gulf States or Israel, but cyber attacks on US infrastructure here in the homeland. Do you think that is coming?
Johnson says Iran has that capability and links its increased cyber warfare capacity to the Stuxnet attack.
BREAKING: U.S. BOMBS 2ND IRANIAN MISSILE LAUNCH UNIT, ISRAELI JETS APPROACH BORDER w/ Larry Johnson
Q: What is the logic here behind Tehran saying, you know what? We know they're coming. They're going to hit us. We're going to take the lick and then we'll hit back. What is the benefits there?
Johnson says Iran may seek to avoid being portrayed as the aggressor and may wait rather than take actions that justify an attack. He adds that the reported strike on Sirik could make preemptive action more likely.
BREAKING: ISRAELI JETS FLYING NEAR IRAN BORDER NOW AS U.S AIRCRAFT EVACUATE QATAR w/ Matthew Hoh
Q: What do you think Iran is going to do to Israel if they really kick this off, knowing that Israel is openly talking about hitting civilian infrastructure?
Hoh says Iran may avoid striking Israel unless Israel attacks first, but could target U.S. forces, Gulf Arab states, Israeli energy infrastructure, ports and military facilities.
