Friend,

I talked to Newsmax ( here [[link removed]] ) about the crisis in the Middle East between Saudi Arabia and Iran: if there is a war against Iran, it would make previous U.S. military campaigns in the Middle East look "like a cake walk ... neither Mr. Trump nor Democrats understand — because they haven’t operated there — that our carrier battlegroups cannot survive in the Persian Gulf."

"Iranian coastal defenses would likely render the entire Persian Gulf off limits to U.S. Navy warships. Iran’s advanced surface-to-air missile defenses would be a significant threat to U.S. pilots," I told Newsmax, and we risk “hundreds of missiles that rain down on bases in Bahrain and Qatar that are ours, as well as Israel.”

The issue with using military force is "how wisely do you use it — and don’t get into another tragic misadventure like Iraq… If you’re going to use our military, you’d better know how it’s going to end before you decide it’s wise to begin."

We had fixed Iran’s nuclear weapon-making capability, then broke our word on the Iran nuclear accord. Now we think our military is going to fix it again? No: militaries can stop a problem, but they cannot fix a problem. There is an absence of this understanding in the White House and among the Democratic Party's slate of fine candidates, who lack the depth and breadth of global experience we need to avoid and prevent catastrophes like Iraq — which one candidate even voted for — and now, possibly, Iran. We saw it in the last presidential debate.

It was our nation’s investment that prepared me to be Commander-in-Chief. Please help me get my message out to the country.
