Face The Nation: Chris Murphy, David Petraeus, Tom Perez

David Petraeus (remember: "Betraeus"? Anyway, when he appears on your screen better go to mute or change the channel.  He has nothing of use to add and he's way off the mark.  Observe that Iranians have stopped demonstrating and have unified against "The Great Satan".  David has no idea of how emotions work, he talks of putting back in place the deal Trump slapped aside and now threatens them with harsh measures.  Nothing like negotiating and working together to end hostilities, Trump is escalating hostilities while claiming all the while that he's not interested in war.  He's counting on them striking back so he can declare war.  Unfortunately for his simple minded plans, they are going to study this and do something disastrous that would not justify any military response.  Like, for instance, arrange some kind of economic or political catastrophe. 
Other countries may begin to ask us to withdraw our troops, or raise the costs of keeping them there. We have too many fingers in too many pies, not to be exposed to countermeasures.
