It appears the USG has chosen to deal with the mass unemployment and the deepening recession cum depression with the only method it knows to have worked in the past: War.Saddening isn't it. But you know, this year has turned things around on them quite a bit. From the trade war, the HK riots and the pandemic among others, nothing is going right for the USA right now at all. Sooner or later, the USA must deal with the fact that the nation has lost so many jobs that it makes the depression a walk in a park along with the fact that thanks to there stupid management of the virus that the situation has now mutated. Consider the fact that the election is going to be the most crazy election that could decide the of the world, one more mistake, could very well take the house of cards down along with it. If the USA insists that they can keep on lying and gaslighting the world and may in fact be able to trick everyone multiple times, they certainly cannot trick God (the one they insists blesses them) and given the current chaos, you think they might reflect on where they have gone wrong. If they don't stop and repent now, God is going to take everything way from them.
Instigating a war, be it in korea or iran is hoped, by America's leaders, in shaking off the malaise in US society and unite the masses as ww1 supposedly united both left and right in many european nations. Effectively, they are hoping to either kick the can down the road (ww1 option) or hopefully re-enact 1945.
