    The idea of using military force to "send a message" is just hawkish pablum. Exact opposite of the intended "message" often received.

        The "message" projected by taking rash, ill-considered military action is that the US is dangerously unhinged. Nothing to do with "strength"

        Do you have some case or empirical proof for this? Because it's both counterintuitive and seems contradicted by history.

        'Hawkish pablum' is ad-hominem. Not sending a message to tyrants and letting them go about their business is the Chamberlain school

        Then why did Nobel Prize winner Obama drop 26,000 bombs in 2016 and you stood silent?

        People in other countries don't like it when United States tries to determine their destiny. Nor would Americans. Result: terrorism.

        Where was this when Obama killed millions over term of his presidency? He killed over 300,000 people last year? Oh ya. No media covered it.

        If a foreign nation bombed in US territory, the "message" would be "act of war". Even hacking email is decried as "act of war".

        So we should expect a military action if DPRK launches 🚀 a missile or detonates a bomb which they always do on their anniversary weekend

        Case in point: they (presumably unintentionally) used Iraq to send the message "You really REALLY need to get yourselves nuclear weapons"

        And doing nothing or relying on useless UN rarely does anything either. Often leads to bigger slaughter.

        The purpose it serves could be to hasten terrorist reprisals, nothing will clear the decks for Trump better than that

        Why? If someone objected to an action of yours & said THIS (assault) is a warning & next time w/be worse, then wouldn't you stop?

        The #MOAB was clearly a "message" move, ie propaganda, but putting remaining troops in greater jeopardy.
