    What’s the dominant theory for why the U.S. gets involved every 10 years?

    Does each war only last 10 years and they need to renew their subscription?

    If you want to get weird, there’s an astrologer named Nick Dagan Best that wrote a book about the US and 80-ish year cycles that follow the 7th planet in our solar system.

    It’s called “UranUSA”. I seriously think he might have just come up with the title and worked backwards.

    Eh, they’re easy to spin up an excuse for, won’t terribly fuck up diplomatic ties and not likely to give a significantly challenging battle so they can hoot usa usa. Honestly at this point the US is just farming the middle east for jingoism points

    For this to make sense, we’d have to leave at some point in between the peaks…

    It’s been a forever war for generations at this point.
