It's being widely reported that Donald Trump has ordered the military to stand down and not retaliate against Iran for them shooting down a US drone.

For some reason, there are people who are mad at the president.

Some of these people are actually saying that Trump should have killed 150 people in retaliation for an un-man-drone being shot down.

Now, I understand the un-man-drone is very expensive, but I'm going to have to agree with the president on this one.

It's a really weird situation. In fact, there was a tweet from Jank Eugur of the young Turks saying if Trump keeps us out of war with Iran, he will be a better president than George W. Bush.

I don't have to agree. But why then do we see conservatives, people on CNN arguing that Trump is being weak and effective?

The crazy and sad truth is that we are on the precipice of World War III, and that's not just my opinion.

Foreign leaders are saying missteps in conflict with Iran could create a world war.

You're going to be going up against Iran's allies? And then you're going to rope in the allies of allies, and there we go.

It's not something we want to do. Now listen, you guys know, you watch my content.

I'm a pretty anti-war person. In fact, my biggest criticisms of Trump have been foreign policy weapons, deal with Saudi Arabia just blocked by the US government, drone strikes, same thing Obama was doing I know.

So I'm very, very happy to hear personally in my opinion that Trump has said we're not going to do this. Good news.

But war is a sad reality. And the truth is, sometimes war happens, and there is nothing you can do to stop it.

So today, let's take a look at some of the latest news having to do with what's causing the escalation. And yes, the very real possibility of, I know it's crazy to say, but a World War III.

Now, people have brought up the potentials in the past, but we have had an increasing tensions with Russia.

We now have escalating tensions with Iran. And yes, any conflict between the two will likely rope in other countries and not be good.

Iran is not the same as Iraq and Afghanistan. That was a mistake. Iran is a large developed nation. It is not the same.

Now, here's the first story I want to highlight from the Associated Press.

Iranian hackers wage cyber campaign amid tensions with the US. I highlight this because even though we, you know, Trump ordered the stand down, conflict rages on.

Most people can't see what's happening behind closed doors, especially behind monitor screens. So according to the Associated Press, Iran is actually targeting US infrastructure.

What scary is war is likely already happening to some degree. Cyber attacks happen all day at night. Cyber espionage.

It's entirely possible that Iran is targeting US infrastructure. In fact, what may actually be more worrisome is that although I've criticized Rachel Maddow for talking about Russia shutting off the heat in the winter, it's a real possibility that we have basically a Mexican standoff where the US has access to critical infrastructure from Russia.
