Rubio and Trump profit, no matter what. Hegseth gets to continue to make stupid decisions and say stupid manly stuff while beating his chest. Everybody else suffers or dies. In the end, the oligarchs and those who invest in war-making profit, and that includes any number of the members of Congress, and, likely a number of Supreme Court Justices. The levels of immorality and inhumanity are astounding and abhorrent.
it seems that sanity is an impediment to Trump's ego, so we can't be sure that a Kharg island invasion is not a real possibility. Yet, he must know that the consequences would only kill his chances in the midterms and probably result in his Impeachment, but, of course this could happen anyway.
Trump once bragged that he appointed John Bolton as a scarecrow in his first administration. Pete Hegseth seems to fill the same role in this one. So, that leaves me thinking of what's going on in Rubio's devious head. Although, Rubio is sinister, I don't think he's batshit crazy like Hegseth. His priority is Cuba and reinforcing US hegemony in the Western Hemisphere, so he must realize his dream will never come to fruition if there is a Kharg Island invasion.
Yet, Rubio might not have enough influence to deter an erratic Trump. There doesn't seem to be any counterbalancing influence in the Pentagon and congress is filled with zionist cheerleaders who are likely to encourage Trump only to revile him later on. The situation reminds me of the Cuban Missile Crisis without a sane commander in chief at the helm.

“Iran is wagering he does it a third time.”
No, it is not. The IRGC are saying, “Make my day, punk”.
