    Hold the line....
    James Mattis tells troops in Jordan to
    “Just hold the line until our country gets back to understanding and respecting each other, and showing it — of being friendly to one another, you know, that Americans owe to one another,”

    Nobody knows the answer to that, but starting a war on the premise of him crossing that line and attacking someone is rather extreme isn't it?

    The reference was for Caesar's army returning home to deal with domestic politics that destroyed the Roman Republic. His comments about American society to the troops are not unwelcome and unhelpful . STFU "General" .

    I knew you could be counted on for historical context, which only enhances my image of you having old fashioned horn rimmed glasses (LOL), but remain unsure if Trump, or Kim is the parallel you draw as comparison. I still hold that any preemptive strike on Kim that doesn't include TOTAL obliteration is foolish and will fail.

    So who is crossing your Rubicon? Kim, Trump, or... CHINA?
