Ret. Adm. Mike Mullen Said That He Worries the Current War with Iran Could Drag on for Years: ‘Wars Expand, Objectives Change’

RUSH EXCERPT:
MULLEN: "Well, I think it’s typical, almost an anti war wars, expand objective change circumstances come up that you didn’t expect, and I worry. This is already become a wide regional war and I worry that without some kind of thoughtful limits on where were gone, and how we’re going to get there that it will continue to expand. I mean it’s gone from very local to now in following discussions about Russia’s involvement. The president’s got a visit with China deanna this month, which is a huge issue in China’s watching this. So there’s an awful lot at play in this war. In addition to just the two tragedy associated with those that are those that are dying, believe me this a bad regime, we all wish had gone away a long time ago. I think that’s going to be a challenge in the future, but we need to contain them. We’ve got friends and allies out there with got the economy the world and great part, depending on on the open waters at the straits of hormuz and how markets react to this. You’ve got a tours economic livelihood in the region. That’s actually completely stopped right, now, so there’s an awful lot and play that we can anticipate-, and certainly that was the case in Iraq and Afghanistan- and I worry about this. Getting drawn out these wars just don’t and quickly at least they certainly haven’t in the last several decades"
