[epistasis]

Nobody who was a decision maker on the war thought about any of this, at all, in any way.

There was no strategy, no thinking, no planning, nothing.

The US military has wargamed the Strait of Hormuz to hell, and all that was ignored, or dismissed, or not even considered to be relevant.

The full force of the US military is in the hands of a man who operates on whims based on what his reality TV instincts tell him will look good, and we are seeing the weakness of electing a reality TV star known for his capricious decision making and cruelty.
